@JuliaHB1 But being the monarch's first born is what that particular job *is*. So it actually does go to the person with most ability!

@VictoriaCoren yes if you define "ability" as the luck of happening to be born first. Not really a good way of judging talent though, is it? -
@JuliaHB1 But it's what the job IS! What talent do you mean? They don't have to juggle, or sing. They just have to BE the heir / monarch. -
@VictoriaCoren you really don't get it, do you? That is a RIDICULOUS qualification for any job. And especially for a head of state in 21st C -
@JuliaHB1 I think we're talking at cross purposes. Forget I spoke. As you were! -
@VictoriaCoren ha! I do get your point. But I think your point misses the *real* point, which is that we shouldn't have a monarch! X -
@JuliaHB1@VictoriaCoren Most people's favourite countries are constitutional monarchies - Sweden, Holland, Denmark, ANZ, Canada, Japan.
