This is interesting, because it shows that even the king has to know his place, right? Because if the king expresses a views that we know he has, and he's passionate about. Yet he can't use his platform to try and promote those sorts of ideas. If he does, then it'll put the constitution into question, which basically means that that will put the place of the monarch in question. And our democratically elected government, Luke, that's the end of the story, really.
Talking to my parents about events in the UK following the death of The Queen on 9 September, including the media coverage, the proclamation of King Charles III, comments about Charles as King and a discussion of the role of the monarch in the UK’s constitution. Also includes some comments about the new Prime Minister Liz Truss and the future of the UK government over the next 18 months.
