Now will Charles take the name Charles III or, as I suspect, will he opt for George VII?

We'll never have a better chance to install 'World In Motion' as the National Anthem than this.
Get it done (it's what she would have wanted).

As per Queen Elizabeth's stated wishes, Camilla will take the title of Queen Consort, just as QE II's own mother did. When George VI died, QE II's mother became the Queen Mother. If Charles were to die before Camilla, what title would Camilla have? King Stepmother?

I'm neither pro nor anti monarchy but this seems like the right time to knock it on the head, or at the very least massively reduce everything about it.
The Queen was loved by pretty much everyone (except for the the more vile folk off the far-left), Charles just doesn't have that same sway though, infact I'd say more people (Even among pro-monarchy-types) don't like him (And he's far too political to hold such a role with all his eco-nut views & links to the WEF & their 'Build Back Better' Great Reset agenda).
Get rid of all the hangers on, give Charles a very basic role, and get them paying their own way.... Change the anthem aswell, I was never against God Save The Queen, singing God Save The King for Charlie boy though doesn't feel right, and I can't imagine there'd be many people in support of it.
