Such a pardon would require government, possibly also parliamentary action. William is a future king and must therefore be very wary of doing anything in public that can be construed as influencing political process. Not that you'd expect the instant gratification, 140 characters or bust, Twitter-hogging generation to understand anything as nuanced as that.

William and Kate are not transient reality TV slebs. They have a role in our constitution and are simply fulfilling it.

Nowt to see here.
