Wise words from our our future ruler
Not much comment needed on this really, but I think it should be disseminated as widely as possible. Prince Charles on uppity servants:
Next time someone in the pub starts defending the monarchy to you, just bring this up and ask them if they really want to live in a world where their children are denigrated for their ambitions by somebody who has been the centre of attention throughout his life simply by virtue of the pair of thighs which he landed between when he entered the world. What more does Chas have to do to be a failure anyway?
What is wrong with people now? Why do they all seem to think they are qualified to do things far beyond their technical capabilities?
This is to do with the learning culture in schools as a consequence of a child-centred system which admits no failure. People seem to think they can all be pop stars, high court judges, brilliant TV personalities or infinitely more competent heads of state without ever putting in the necessary work or having natural ability.
This is the result of social utopianism which believes humanity can be genetically and socially engineered to contradict the lessons of history
