    AAAHHHHHHHHH FFS

    “The 16 countries who share the British monarch as head of state agreed to change the current 300-year-old law which gives male heirs priority”

    But why??

    If she has a boy first then a girl why does the girl get to become queen?

    Its your thread Tel, surely you can answer this before flouncing on to an other thread.

    The current rules of succession mean that sons (and their children) will be first in line to the throne regardless of when the daughter was born. Princess Anne is an example of that, born after Charles but currently 10th in line to the throne after her younger brothers and their children.

    Planned legislation is that the children of the monarch will be in line to the throne in the order that they are born regardless of gender, however that will only apply to those born once the legislation is passed.

    What Clegg is saying is that the legislation will apply to any children of William and Kate even if they are born before the legislation has been passed, so if they have a daughter first then she will be Queen before any subsequent brothers she may have. Of course if they have a son first then a daughter, the daughter will have to wait her turn

    Not sure what makes him think he has the power to override legislation though…it would be interesting if someone (Pincess Anne? or her children?) chose to challenge that – after all, if it can be applied retrospectively to a daughter of a future monarch, why can’t it be applied to the daughter of a reigning monarch?

    I think the Queen may have a say in this! Afterall, she does have power over the Government! Be quite interesting to see what happens!

    #497254

    The Queen has already approved the changes to the legislation…as for power over the Government, in theory yes, in practice…

    Just a quick one to say that no matter how bad Mr. Clegg seems to be, he is nowhere near as bad as our number 2 :?

    I’m sure Lucy will concur.

    #497257

    I concur but then again their all feckers.
