A pointless gesture
If Margaret Rhodes is correct, the Queen apparently plans to remain on the Throne until she dies. This strikes me as a Bad Idea. First, how can someone in their 90s and possibly 100s effectively rule a country? Second, if she does live to (let's say) 95, and there is no reason to believe she won't, then Prince Charles will be 73 when he becomes King, only a few years off death himself. This of course might be her game plan.
