Trend-setting

 

In his farewell speech to Barbados, Charlie Windsor said that “the creation of this republic offers a new beginning”. He’s right, of course. We can only hope that the idea catches on – there are a few monarchical states a lot closer to home that could do with just such a new beginning.

Glib comments passed by a prince who exists in a parallel universe most of the time only apply to former colonies far from home. UK Establishment will not bring itself to contemplate something similar for Wales or even Northern Ireland. Too close to home, might prompt a revolt in Cornwall, Cumbria, Northumbria or even Yorkshire.
