PRINCE William is a fine young man and our future king, but what's the use of a future king if we are not allowed to see him?

Future kings are meant to be seen by the public. That's what we pay them for.

Camilla Parker-Bowles is accepted into Clarence House, while Fergie - the mother of the Queen's grandchildren - is no longer considered a member of the Royal Family.

It is a sad sign of the times that those who should show us a good example are now a dysfunctional family - like the rest of us.
