Adopt or Die?
As history shows, monarchies need to continuously reform themselves, if they want to survive. Arguments about the Monarchy are as old as the institution itself. But this summer, critics who have been calling for reform were taken by surprise.
According to the Political Editor of the Sun newspaper, Trevor Kavanagh, it is the Queen who has recognized the need for change. "She set up the committee four years ago," he said. "They meet every six months, and she, at the age of 70, looks into the future and understands that the Royal Family has to change taking into account the changing times".
Buckingham Palace has not revealed all the details about the committee's discussions, but it is clear that the Queen is considering changing some of the Monarchy's more ancient rules.
One proposal is to end the law, which foresees that the title of Monarch passes to sons rather than daughters. The present Queen only inherited the title because there were no male heirs.
The ban on heirs
to the throne marring Roman Catholics has also come under scrutiny. Under the
present law, which is 295 years old, a Royal cannot be crowned if he or she is
married to a Catholic.
But big changes are not expected soon. It is clear that these meetings are part of an evolutionary, not revolutionary process of change and reform. The British Monarchy has, throughout history, been very good at adapting to circumstances. It has survived wars, political and social changes, and ups and downs in its popularity.
a) Mark the statements which are True.
1. For
centuries there have been arguments about the Monarchy in Britain. □
2. The British
Queen has never taken into account the changing times. □
3. In Britain the
title of Monarch has always been passed to the oldest child in the Royal
family. □
4. Big changes in
ancient rules are expected to take place in Britain soon. □
5. As
history shows the British Monarchy has been very good at adopting to
circumstances. □
b) Write down your answers to the following questions.
1. Why do
monarchies need to reform themselves?
2. Has the Queen
recognized the need for change?
3. What was
reported by the Political Editor of the Sun newspaper?
4. What rules
(laws) is the Queen considering changing?
5. Are big changes
expected soon?
6. The British
Monarchy has been very good at adapting to circumstances, hasn't it?
