AFTER hearing accounts of handwritten letters from HRH Prince of Wales being sent to the then Home Secretary David Blunkett and other democratically elected MPs, attempting to influence or change government policy, I would have to ask who does this silly man think he is?

He only holds the position he has through an accident of birth or a fluke of nature.

He has never done a day’s work in his life and let’s be honest, after his disastrous private life I should think he would be the last person to advise any government on the best way to move society forward.

I think his time would be better spent sitting in one of his taxpayer-funded libraries studying his own family tree with special attention to his namesake, Charles the First.
