Well said, Paul. KC really ought to have learned by now to stay away from controversial topics. He is so well insulated and distant from the lives of 99.99% of his subjects that he should not be expressing an opinion far less touting that opinion as fact. His mother understood that.
Thanks, Paul. An Anglican vicar, the Reverend Dan, had some suitably vigorous comments on King Charles' Christmas Speech and his very visible taste for religious diversity. Hey, Your Majesty, you are supposed to be Head of the C of E. This video attracted over 2,000 comments, which is far more than the weekly congregation of most Christian churches in England
King Charles at least achieved some conversions with his speech. Several of the commenters have converted to republicanism. What is the point of having such a King?
Allegedly Prince William is a non believer. So it will be a laugh a minute witnessing his Coronation oaths (or affirmations), especially any to protect the C of E. As Charles is 76 and has been treated for the big C....can this toe curling event be far off?
We are all fed up with this shallow Chicken Tikka Massala concept of multiculturalism beloved of our rulers. When the police treat Islamic thugs with kid gloves and jail angry white people for expressing their disdain,when Sharia law is practised daily and terrorism is celebrated on our streets we know it’s a monoculture we are being subjected to.when we are invaded daily by people who hate our rules but love our welfare, it’s time to call it out as Paul has.
Well said Paul. The king is more popular than I expected and I’m grateful for that. On the whole he has trodden light footed in his mother’s path. But he has to be careful. In this turbulent world, he may find himself on the wrong side of history.
Happy New Year when it comes and look forward to reading your excellent articles in 2025.
While I had a great deal of respect for his mother, Queen Elizabeth II, and therefore might have called myself a monarchist then, this character is of a different order and I've been suspicious for many years. For one, he is far too politically active, and didn't he even attend a Davos meeting? What the heck is a monarch doing attending a meeting such as that - infested with wannabe business people who want influence, billionaire psychopaths and drug pedlars, and deluded sociopaths who want to re-engineer society and establish their own world control
Nah, he makes me sick. But then again, the thought of the alternative and a President Kier Starmer really does turn my stomach.
Well said Paul and couldn’t agree more. I was very sad when our late Queen Elizabeth III died and wondered if he would be able to come anywhere near her level of service and duty. This speech is simply more evidence that he is not fit, has no idea who his subjects are, and despite a very long apprenticeship for the role of King, is woefully unfit for his position.
In my 64 years in this country, I have seen a great deal of change and some of it has been welcome. Changing the fabric and culture of our nation is not, and should not be a diversity project. If people want to live in the U.K. they need to assimilate with its laws and.culture, not the other way round. Diversity is and will continue to be our biggest weakness.
Perfectly said. The King has always overstepped the mark politically I think. When he was Prince of Wales he seemed to state far too many opinions that verged on the political. Not a good idea.
This assumes that the king has an opinion he feels at liberty to express. Like it or not he is in the unenviable position of being the official mouthpiece for the views of others. The King, who has a sense of history and responsibility, must always be mindful that his position and the future of the monarchy is now fragile and a wrong word, or even an honest opinion openly expressed, could so easily bring it crashing down. He is nothing if not dutiful.

Another stunner, Paul, hitting all the right notes.

Good article Paul. I never had particularly high expectations for King Charles, and remain of that view.

Excellent article, Paul. Thank you for articulating so well what so many of us feel very deeply.
