Sir - Am I alone in thinking that Prince Charles would make a more effective Prime Minister than any of the weak focus-group-influenced politicians currently in power?

A man of principle, who is willing to boycott a banquet given for the leader of an oppressive regime that has an appalling human rights record, deserves our support. Whilst our politicians kowtow to anyone and everyone, at least the Prince of Wales might say what we all think.
