So is it the pedo next in line?
No, he’s completely out of the running unless all of King Charles children and grandchildren mysteriously die
Don’t give the pedo any ideas
I think it’s primogeniture monarchy, so it’s from parent to child. Next in line is Charles’ firstborn.
Would be weird for the longest serving monarch to be replaced by the shortest serving one.
Which raises a good question… who was the shortest serving British monarch?
Oh, of COURSE there’s a Wiki for that…
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_British_monarchy_records
"The shortest-reigning monarch was Lady Jane Grey who ruled for 9 days from 6 July until 15 July 1553 (although she was only proclaimed queen by the Lords of the council on 10 July). Her husband Lord Guildford Dudley was her consort for the entire reign, making this the shortest tenure of the male consort of a female monarch. Note: Jane’s reign is disputed.
The king with the shortest definitively known reign was Edgar the Ætheling who ruled for 2 months, 12 days in 1066 before submitting to William the Conqueror. Some records indicate that Sweyn Forkbeard reigned for only 40 days in 1013–4.[7]"
Queen Elizabeth II died 9/8/2022, so Charles has already been in 514 days. He’s good…
Would be weird for the longest serving monarch to be replaced by the shortest serving one.
That makes a lot of sense actually. Elizabeth II cut into his time.
He’s still pretty far down the overall list though

Oh no… anyway…
Hmm, which king William will William be?
The one from Epstein Island
V, for anyone wondering. And there might be a William V in Luxembourg too, so I eagerly await the two getting mixed up in amusing ways.
Liberté, Egalité, Chemotherapé!
I can’t wait to be smoking on that king pack. #RipBozo meme is locked and loaded.
The royal family, including Charles are big proponents of homeopathy. Let’s see how much homeopathy is going to help him now. I’m sure at least as much as those alternative methods Steve Jobs chose helped him, back then…
i mean one of king charles issues has been furthering cancer research…
You’ve got to be kidding me. Is it corruption or stupidity? As in, are they selling vials of contaminated water as medicine or are they just known to trust pseudoscience?
It’s hypocrisy and the typical rich bozo alienation syndrome, they have easy and unlimited access to best medicine in the world, so it’s easy to forget that others don’t and promote charlatanerie. It could also be malicious if we look at how they don’t do anything against gutting the healthcare.
So, stupidity or strong belief in placebo?
I imagine he is not that stupid nor really believes in a placebo.
The water/solvent isn’t even contaminated. It is deluted so thoroughly, you can’t even find a single molecule of whatever ingredient is supposed to show any effect.
Not supposed to be contaminated!
Abolish the monarchy!
Darn, I was hoping for a car crash
With the UK’s Chief Executive and thought leader incapacitated Scotland should declare independence.
Issue is, I do not think they are going for a Scottish Republic unfortunately.
So, Harry is next in line, right?
/s
I’m just fucking.
Our royalty are really just diplomats with better PR and a lot less privacy. Poor guy just lost his mum, now he’s got cancer - I hope he recovers.
He will receive better healthcare than 99% of the population after living a life drenched in privilege.
My sympathies lie elsewhere
You know sympathy isn’t rationed, right?
Yes, he’s lined in unbelievable privilege. Yes, he’ll get the best care available. Yes, it is reasonable to believe and campaign for the monarchy to be abolished.
But this is still a man who has been diagnosed with cancer. For anyone, that is a scary and upsetting diagnosis and, upon hearing about it, it is only reasonable to feel sympathy for that person.

I mean, I also feel sympathy for you.
There is a lot of hate there, and someone/something must have really hurt you to make you feel that someone deserves cancer because they’ve had money in their life.
I hope whatever you’re going through gets better, that whatever has happened in the past becomes more distant, and that today is a lucky day for you.
It’s a bit harsh to put such words in their mouth. They said their sympathies lie elsewhere, not that he deserved it.
I hope he makes a full recovery, but you know, the jokes write themselves.
Now is the time for Scotland and Wales to declare independence and join the EU. It would be hilarious.
Becomes king
Fucking dies
Lmaooo
And least he got to be king first :P
I haven’t seen any new coins yet with his face on it. It may be the shortest run of coins with a new face. I’ve had the same face on my coins for my entire life, these will be the first with a new one.
Shortest run was probably Edward VIII. My dad found a coin with Charles’s face on it. I also bought a few commemoratives. I think it’ll probably start appearing on £1 coins soon as they are the newest
English taxpayers paying for another coronation ceremony be like: 🥶*
* can’t pay to heat their house.
I mean, it did bring more money into the economy than it took out of it, same with Queen Elizabeth II’s funeral, so we could profit off of this
Don’t knock it, we get a day off when they die and a day off when we get a new one.
Sometimes we get a day off when they’ve been on the throne for a set number of years.
So for that reason I’d like to keep them.
Give us two extra bank holidays a year, and you can King Ralph all these motherfuckers.
It’s a bummer that his reign may not last long enough for the British to decide that maybe a king is a bad idea.
It isn’t. Our head of state is a kind old man while most other countries have some form of psychopath
Do you by chance know how popular the next guy is?
