In any case we won’t be expecting that long a reign and judging by the decisions the UK has made of late perhaps a voice of common sense in general would be helpful... Controveries aside, he spoke about organic food well before it was popular so certainly not the worst example of him using his voice. In any case other than for himself and his duty he also is doing it for his son to give him the time to take it all in before it will eventually be his time as well.

His net zero green support may very well backfire on him. The love of the British people will be tempered to a great degree by the amount of freezing they do in the upcoming winter.

The government runs the show. The Monarch is a ceremonial and spiritual figure. TECHNICALLY he could overrule the government, but it is simply not done. It would raise questionas and force a constitutional crisis. From a democratic point of veiw, an unelected leader is ovveriding a legitimatly elected body. Even if we hate our own gov and WANT him to intervene, the fact is that doing so would open a can of worms nobody wants. The most he could get away with is dissolving the government and forcing a new election, but he cannot outright overrule the prime minister without MAJOR rammifications. Perhaps if the gov turned tyrannical and oppressive, but thats about it.

@@Whoami691 I understand all that, however, the British public opinion may not be so rational. Everything fine last winter under the old Queen, this winter I am freezing in my own house, that sort of thing. It's a matter of bad timing, mostly, and out of the King's hands. Having been linked to the Green Energy policies which much of the public is also likely to blame for their misery will not help him. Also, an extravagent coronation next spring or summer after a winter of suffering would only add to his difficulties, no matter how cost efficient and trimmed down, it would never be enough to satisfy critics. King Charles III will have some rough waters to navigate over the next twelve months, and the Prime Minister will as well. Thank you for your reply.
