No king of mine.
Much as I hate to urinate on your chips, but absent some major constitutional upheaval, if you're British he will be.
Will there be a farcical aquatic ceremony?
Will some watery tart chuck a scimitar at 'im?
Supreme executive power comes from a mandate from the masses, not from some farcical aquatic ceremony!

I'm all for the major constitutional upheaval myself. Rather than king kyoto of global warming.
Crack on, by all means. I was simply pointing out that until then, he will, actually, be your king.

Should there be a wink at the end of your post or were you being serious?

The Prince of Wales has described climate change as the “wolf at the door” as he urged world leaders to take immediate steps to combat what he sees as the biggest threat to the future of the planet. In his bleakest comments on the subject to date, the Prince says action on climate change “must be urgently scaled up, and scaled up now”.

Apparantly the book has been checked for accuracy by several academics.

Telegraph said:
He said the Prince had been “deeply involved at every stage” of the book’s production, and the Prince insisted on it being peer-reviewed to make sure nothing in the text could be disputed.

After it was checked by seven academics, Mr Juniper said: “These must be among the most thoroughly crawled-over 5,000 words in any book anywhere.”

The content wasn't reviewed against unmolested climate data, otherwise it would have been binned.

Who chose the faithful disciples to act as reviewers?

Odds are they didn't include any of Profs Singer, Christie, Lindzen, Henderson, Abdusamatov, Easterbrook, Michaels, Humlum, Shaviv, Bengtsson, and others that I'd need more than early morning memory to list.

It would have made a difference in one way, but not in terms of the pointlessness of the act. Appeals to authority are as weak as gnats' pee compared to any appeal to credible data.

The claim in that report says nothing worthy of special mention.

Given the increase in CO2 concentration in the atmosphere isn't much more than homeopathic concentrations in some "remedies" I can see the connection hehe

Looks like Harry is going down the Charles route - do as I say, not as I do.

Prince Harry said:
Every forest, every river, every ocean, every coastline, every insect, every wild animal. Every blade of grass, every ray of sun and every rain drop is crucial to our survival.
https://www.townandcountrymag.com/society/tradition/a26708102/prince-harry-we-day-speech-transcript-2019/

“Every wild animal is crucial to our survival”.

Well except the ones he kills.

Lectures us on climate change yet is happy to use a helicopter when he could have taken a train like his gran often does.

Prince Harry took £6k helicopter just two days before climate change speech

Saw the heading 'Our next King's Ladybird book about cli...' and thought, really, a bit near the knuckle, or fingertips, depending.
