Good news on the monarchy
So – Downing Street has at last seen the light – and is making noises (obviously following my recent campaign – and honourable others over the years) to end the discrimination in accession to the throne. The first born boy has always, literally, ruled supreme and shoved any earlier born sisters out of the way. But from reports in the papers Downing Street is considering bringing in laws to reform that tradition – and also the bar against Catholics taking the throne.
Sadly they are talking about implementing them if Labour won a fourth term. Don’t wait! It’s such a bleeding obvious thing to do – no need to wait. Just get it done promptly!
