The Duchess of Cambridge has outed three new photos of herself for the occasion of her 40th birthday.

But who do you think would make a better Queen of England: the Duchess of Cambridge or Camilla?
Me, naturally.

I don't find her that good looking. Way too bland.

I'm part of the Commonwealth, and I believe the Queen is important.
I think it is important that the head of state is not the same as the head of government. I also believe that some sort of reverence for the office of a non-political head-of-state is required to safeguard a democracy.
The Crown is useful as long as it does its constitutional job, and enjoys some popularity. That way, if some dictator comes to power, the Crown will have the backing of the people to dissolve parliament. There are other ways to get a head-of-state. They can be elected or appointed, but that doesn't give the same level of political independence or popular mythology that may be required in a crisis.
Charles would do his damnedness to be that dictator. He has no concept of non-political and thinks the sun shines out of his arse.
