Today, we hear that the Candy Brothers, who had been partners in the Chelsea Barracks Development, had been thwarted in their work, by the strong and incessant interference of the Prince of Wales.
Prince Charles, has developed a mean reputation for interferring in politics, and over-stepping the mark. Many claim that they have recieved letters with his boad, Black ink "spiders" handwriting. For years, many government ministers, civil servants and even members of the public have complained that Prince Charles has a serious lack of judgement, to the point of being a nuisance.
Words mentioned where Prince Charles is concerned are "intimidating", "interferring" and "a self-serving nuisance".
Prince Charles, as heir to the throne has a particular role, which does not include running the government. However, in his fragile mind, it appears he is convinced he does.
So at last, we find some people with enough balls and guts to take on the monster. The Candy brothers have won their case for breach of contract, on the basis of the accumulation of evidence. Evidence which included several personal letters from Prince Charles to members of the Qatari royal, pleading with them to 'save' London from the long-term effects of "Brutalist achitecture".
I have see, the proposed design, and "Brutalist", is not the style of architecture that was being proposed. So one can only come to the conclusion, that Prince Charles's meant his words to have the effect of a command.
Like poor Mrs Duffy and her being called "that woman" and "bigot", the words wer pronounced to have a particular effect. namely an attack, and even elimination of the person, or in the Candy Brothers case, their business.
Once Prince Charles had said or written the words, it was guaranteed that the deal was dead a buried. Prince Charles is an arrogant unfeeling man. when he pronounced and wrote the words, he dis not give a backwards glance at the damage and havoc he had left in his wake. The expense, damage, hurt and suffering he contributed to was not his concern.
He was so happy that his wish was "their command". This is both a irresponsible and irrational attitude to have towards others. Furthermore, this could be contrued as a dangerous attitude, to the point, of him having to be 'neutralised' and 'contained' in the name of public safety.
Its now time to do an audit of project, communities and government policies Prince Charles has "interferred" or "intervened" with.
The mind boggles to think of the amount of international projects, national programmes, etc, Prince Charles and his ilk have destroyed, on some unthoughtout whim.
It seems to me that a seem of the most senior civil servants need to be put together to form a permanent bulwark against this unaccountable prince. I take it as read, that there are many in Whitehall running with sweat, at the idea of the numbers of other people, who would win legal cases if they chose to take certain associates of Prince Charles to court.
We might even see Prince Charles put in the dock, and become accountable for the first time in his tired and empty life.
We are glad that the Candy brothers have won, and hope that this will be a warning shot across the boughs of Prince Charles, that will help him see the error of his ways and buck up his ideas and inappropriate and even illegal behaviour.
