Royal priorities
Plans are afoot to change the priorities of royal succession. Currently, if King William1 has a daughter, then a son, then falls off a horse, the son will become King because men = better. Some people think this needs to be changed, which seems reasonable. Having said that:
These are people who can arbitrarily pardon criminals, dismiss governments, command the army, and run out Established Christian church whose ministers get a free say in the running of the country on the basis that they were born into the right family, and you’re concerned that that might be sexist?!
