Or was it one of his flunkies that did the procurement? Or is he not covered because he is capable of dishing out honours at his discretion, in theory?
It was a flunky.

I think what the anti-monarchists are missing is the ‘soft power’ that the system of royalty enables us to enjoy. Politicians come and go. The monarchy offers continuity, and the system is cheaper than a presidential system.

So while I’m not a fan of Prince Charles, unless he stands down, he should be allowed his time as king. Given his age, his reign will be comparatively short in any case.
