>> IN 2020 AND EARLIER THIS
YEAR.
CONGRATULATIONS.
BRIAN: THE QUEEN’S DEATH MARKING
THE END OF AN HISTORIC YEARS.
SHE SPENT 70 YEARS ON THE
THRONE.
SHE WORKED WITH 15 PRIME
MINISTERS.
SEVEN POPES.
WHERE DOES THE MONARCHY GO FROM
HERE.
JOINING US DR. BRUCE GHILLIE.
WHAT CHANGES BESIDES WHO WEARS
THE CROWN IN ENGLAND.
>> WHAT CHANGES IS TIME.
AS WITH QUEEN ELIZABETH, AS TIME
PASSED, SHE CHANGED.
THE MONARCHY CHANGED WITHIN OUR
REIGN.
SHE STARTED OUT AS A DISTANT
MONARCH, BUT AS TIME WENT ON SHE
GOT MORE INVOLVED.
WE CAN EXPECT CHARLES WILL
CHANGE, TOO AND PULL BACK FROM
SOME OF HIS POLITICAL ACTIVISM.
AND IT MEANS STRENGTHENING THE
ROLE OF THE MONARCHY IN MAKING
BRITAIN AND PEOPLE WHO ARE LUCKY
INHERITORS OF THOSE INSTITUTIONS
PROUD OF THOSE INSTITUTIONS.
WHAT IS AT THREAT ARE THE BASIC
FOUNDATION OF A GROW AND LIBERAL
SOCIETY.
BRIAN: IN WHAT RESPECT CAN A
KING OR QUEEN CHANGE THAT.
>> AT A TIME WHEN THE
INSTITUTIONS WERE NOT AT THREAT.
PEOPLE WEREN’T SAYING
DEMOCRACIES NEED TO BE DITCHED
IN FAVOR OF EQUITY.
SHE CAN FOCUS ON CHARITABLE
WORKS.
BUT KING CHARLES IS COMING TO
POWER AT A TIME WHEN THE VERY
IDEA OF POLITICAL EQUALITY AND
THE FREEDOMS THAT MADE COUNTRIES
LIKE THE UNITED STATES GREAT ARE
BEING ATTACKED BY THE EQUITY AND
DEI FOLKS.
WE ELIMINATE THE MONARCHY
BECAUSE OUR END GAME IS TO
ELIMINATE THOSE INSTITUTIONS AND
IMPOSE AN EQUITY SYSTEM.
THAT’S WHAT THE KING IS GOING TO
HAVE TO ADVOCATE FOR.
HE WILL HAVE TO SHIFT FROM
CLIMATE CHANGE TO BRITISH
INSTITUTIONS.
BRIAN: I WAS NOT AWARE HOW MUCH
BRITAIN WAS TEARING DOWN THEIR
OWN HISTORY.
TAKING DOWN THEIR OWN STATUES.
THE PRIDE IS NOT THERE.
CAN A KING AFFECT A PRIME
MINISTER AND CAN THEY COMBINE TO
CHANGE THAT.
DO YOU THINK CHARLES SEES IT AS
YOU SEE IT?
>> I DON’T THINK HE SEES IT THAT
WAY.
BUT DON’T FORGET HE’S PART OF A
FAMILY.
I THINK WILLIAM IS MUCH MORE
INFORMED ON THAT THAN HIS FATHER
IS.
THE MONARCHY IN THE BRITISH
SYSTEM PLAYS THE SAME ROLE AS
OUR CONSTITUTION DOES.
IT’S A SYMBOL OF WHAT VALUES YOU
EMBODY AS A PEOPLE.
CHARLES IS NOT JUST SORT OF
SIGNING PAPERS.
HE’S A SYMBOL OF WHAT THE
FOUNDER OF THE ECONOMIST
MAGAZINE CALLED THE DIGNIFIED
PART OF THE CONSTITUTION.
HE HAS TO FOCUS IN THIS REIGN OF
REMINDING BRITS HOW DIGNIFIED
AND VALUABLE THAT CONSTITUTIONAL
INHERITANCE IS.
