>>If it wasn't for Henry VIII wanting a divorce we wouldn't have a Church of England.<<

It beats me why the adherants of a religion that is supposedly founded on tolerance, understanding, forgiveness and love are so unwilling to, or incapable of, exercising such virtues.
They bang on and on about human imperfections and frailty and how they must try to accept and understand, but when those very frailties and imperfections present them with the ideal opportunity to practise what they preach they inevitably fail the test.

As far as I am concerned whoever HRH chooses as his wife is a matter for his own conscience and should be of no concern to anyone other than himself. I certainly do not think that it should barr him from the succession. It was a mistake to marry that dreadful Spencer woman. And though I think that the manner of her death was truly apalling, in retrospect, I have to conclude that it was probably for the best. Had she lived, the damage she would have continued to cause is incalculable. It is not outside the realms of possibility to imagine that in her petulant rage she could well have brought an end to the monarchy. I, for one, would rather have The Queen, with all her faults, as head of state than "President" Blair.

Everyone seems to be obsessed with the fact that Camilla Parker-Bowles is not the most attractive woman in the world. Well, that may be so, but by the same token neither is dear Cherie. Does that make her unfit to be the Prime Minister's wife? Should Tony Blair resign immediately because his wife puts everyone in mind of a wide-mouthed frog?

For goodness sake people, we are all adults, well most of us are, we should all by now be aware that the heart chooses for reasons that often have nothing at all to do with fashion sense, style, or a photogenic profile. Can we not just celebrate the fact that the man has at last found somebody to share his life with who makes him happy and wish them both everything that they wish for themselves?
