I do not want Charles

By Peter Bowden - posted Friday, 3 February 2023


Then there is Queen Consort Camilla , At the late queen Elizabeth's funeral, The Telegraph and several other news sources tells us that the Queen Consort will wear the Crown of Queen Elizabeth, which was made for the late Queen mother in 1937.

Does Australia really want her as Australia's queen, even if only as a consort?

One blog reported the following:

"Ever since the Queen died, Camilla has been throwing her weight around showing everyone who's boss," one source claimed about their latest family rift.

"Kate is becoming increasingly irritated with her," added the source. "She thinks Camilla doesn't take her royal duties seriously and that she doesn't deserve the role. Things have been very awkward."

Another insider claimed that Kate had an issue with her stepmother-in-law and has been "struggling to fall in line" now that Camilla and King Charles III are in charge.

Also worth noting is that the great-grandmother of Camilla, Queen Consort, Alice Keppel , was also the mistress of King Edward VII. Camilla is Queen Consort of the United Kingdom and the 14 other Commonwealth realms including Australia.

In short, I do not want King Charles as king of Australia, especially with Queen Consort Camilla.
