I WISH Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles every personal happiness.

Whatever we think of the monarchy it is clear that they love each other and I think it is a real shame that his mum and dad are being so unsupportive.

But it does show what a circus the royal business has become, and Britain deserves a modern head of state who reflects the strengths and character of the British people as we are today.

The Irish system of electing a president who only has a ceremonial role works really well.

Personally, I would like to see Tony Benn elected president!
