Whatever your opinion on her, we now have King Charles instead which who knows how that might end up. He's seems too opinionated to last though as at least Elizabeth was very good at being snide, though she seemed to lose most her strength when Philip died last year.

I've got a feeling he'll remain king for a few years before abdicating and moving aside for his only son, just to finally experience his childhood/teenage/adulthood/middle-age/pensioner dream of being monarch, and make his mark on history by being the first one to step aside because of 'old age'. I don't know or really care though.

There's been some speculation he might actually just be King to do all the changes and restructuring needed in the monarchy (less titles, rescinding a lot of the privileges given out) then abdicating to William.

It'd be the smart play as he gets to screw over a bunch of royals he doesn't like, give his son a clean slate and he would be King for a while but then spout his opinions again and he knows William wouldn't kick him out to the cold.

spout his opinions

Based, obviously true statement opinions that are commu-illegal, or like actual silly things?

He's a kooky retard who thinks homeopathy and other 'alternative medicine' works, which is probably why he looks markedly worse than his father did at the same age.

King Charles

If he gets coronated under that name, he's doing it purely for ego.

Charles I was overthrown by Cromwell

Charles II overthrew Cromwell only to be a philandering sex pest with 12 illegitimate children - and those are just the ones he admitted to.

He definitely shouldn't want to be be compared to either of those.

He has the middle name(s) Philip Arthur George, so he may choose to be coronated under one of those.

Having him be coronated as King Arthur would definitely be more interesting for sure.

It would indeed, but that's far too humorous for the crown.

If he goes by another name, I predict George, as George V and VI were both loved.

Seeing some of the reports and articles online, seems they're all running with 'King Charles III'

I mean if he copies any of the past Charles it'd be an improvement, go to war with Parliament (I'd want a front row seat to that) or bringing back Christmas!

If Charles went to war against parliament I'd probably 180 my opinion on him overnight.

Day 1: Coronation

Day 2: Declare War

Day 3: Abdicate

Wouldn't even be mad.

He'd still be a jug eared berk, just imagine the king who talks to plants with total power.

I guess we'll see what Scotland has to say, if anything, about that "Charles III" business.

Probably similar things that were said about Elizabeth II given Elizabeth I was never Queen of Scotland what with the whole Mary Queen of Scots snafu going on at the time.

Bring back Christmas? We never lost it to begin with.

It’s just been confirmed - King Charles III.

Admittedly, he hasn’t been officially coronated as such, but I very much doubt that changes now, lol…

It’s just been confirmed - King Charles III.

Modern population is too stupid to follow any tradition of renaming upon coroonation.

Every time a new story happened it would go

"Today King George VII, formerly Prince Charles [because you're all too stupid to follow this], pointed with his enormous sausage fingers at some poor people and laughed."

Cromwell (at least Oliver) was dead by the time Charles II came to England - by invitation, not by overthrowing him.

George isn't exactly an auspicious name either. And there's never been a Philip or Arthur AFAIK.

There’s never been an Arthur since 1066, yes…

But if we’re talking Anglo-Saxon..?

Pretty sure there’s at least one or two with the Olde English version of that name, not just in fiction, though I could be wrong, lol…

I thought there wasn't any before either. Unless we count Ambrosius Aurelianus. Why would Anglo-Saxons name themselves after a mythical ruler who fought against them?

The way immigration is trending in the United Kingdom Charles is probably going to be the last King.
