He can't.
As the Prince of Wales, the heir, he could come out and... Yeah, he campaigned very heavily against coal and so on in Britain and was all for...
ways of overcoming climate change and conservation of natural environments and all those sort of things, he can't necessarily actively promote those anymore.
But I think the other side of that, though, is that for all of his adult life, he has effectively been...
the hand of the queen in a sense that, you know, that he was already doing a whole lot of that.
Now he's allowed to, you know, so do those things of his own accord.
Yeah, it's going to be an interesting one to see what happens.
I also have a soft spot for Charles in a sense that he's been manipulated by being the heir for his entire life.
Tap out at any time, dude.
But at the same time, if you've grown up and the only thing you know and the only thing that your ambition is to be the king, not because you want to be king, but because you want to serve your country...
But then he was manipulated into marrying somebody he didn't love.
Not only that, she was manipulated into getting married.
The woman he did love was manipulated into getting married, and he was sent off overseas.
He was in the Navy at the time, and his family and his uncle, who was the head of the Navy, manipulated it so that he ended up being over in the Caribbean, and they married off the woman he was in love with to somebody else.
Spoiler, he's with her now.
And it's one of the great love stories in the 20th and 21st century that he's been in love with this woman since they were teenagers, were young adults.
And they're still together, despite the fact that they were both married off to other people.
And now he's been with her for his entire life.
Well, yeah, we could question that.
I absolutely agree with you.
