Oh dear. Nice for them and all, but once the current Queen departs it's time for some major reform I reckon.

She wont have the title of Queen. She'll be Duchess of Cornwall and Prince Consort.

No, prince consort, as in the prince's lover.

At the moment, sure.
No way she can be Prince Consort when he's the King.

Duchess of Cornwall? Not really grand enough?
Princess Camilla? (Phil is still a prince, even though he's married to Liz).
If it doesn't scare hippies, it's not worth listening to

Do you think it's easy having to dress in purple and playing second fiddle to Michael Jackson?

Phil was a Greek, and had rather too many Nazi chums at the time of his wedding. Hence only being allowed 2 wedding guests, and not being King.

Apparently 'Prince's Consort' is the title they are proposing to use, in the unlikely event that Charles outlives his mother and ascends. Could still be challenged or changed by members of the Commonwealth, opposition parties or even Brenda herself, although you would imagine she has already approved most of what has come out.
