Rakyat mahu William jadi raja

LONDON 21 Nov. - Majoriti rakyat Britain mahu Putera William dan tunangnya, Kate Middleton menjadi raja dan permaisuri yang akan datang, dan bukan pewaris takhta sekarang, Putera Charles dan isterinya, Camilla.

Tiga tinjauan pendapat umum yang disiarkan hari ini menunjukkan gelombang sokongan padu terhadap William selepas anak lelaki sulung Charles dengan mendiang bekas isterinya, Putera Diana itu mengumumkan beliau dan Kate akan berkahwin pada tahun depan.

Akhbar News of the World menyiarkan hasil tinjauan ICM yang mendapati 55 peratus rakyat mahu William, 28, memintas bapanya, Charles, 62, untuk terus menaiki takhta apabila neneknya, Ratu Elizabeth II meninggal dunia.

Tinjauan terhadap 2,015 orang itu juga mendapati, 64 peratus responden percaya William dan bakal isterinya adalah pasangan diraja yang lebih baik untuk menjamin masa depan monarki Britain, berbanding hanya 19 peratus yang beranggapan demikian mengenai Charles dan Camilla.

Akhbar tersebut menyiarkan gambar olok-olok menunjukkan William dan Kate memakai mahkota dan menduduki takhta.
Dalam tinjauan berasingan Sunday Times-You Gov, 44 peratus responden berpendapat Charles patut memberi laluan kepada William untuk menjadi raja manakala 37 peratus mengatakan sebaliknya.

Sebanyak 56 peratus responden menganggap William akan menjadi raja yang lebih baik berbanding Charles yang hanya mendapat sokongan 15 peratus responden.

Tinjauan OnePoll untuk akhbar People pula mendapati 49 peratus daripada 2,000 responden ingin melihat William dan Kate menaiki takhta berbanding hanya 16 peratus yang memilih Charles dan Camilla.

Semua tinjauan itu juga menunjukkan rakyat Britain rata-rata belum dapat menerima kenyataan yang dibuat oleh Charles pada satu wawancara di televisyen kelmarin.

Dalam kenyataan itu, Charles buat kali pertama mengatakan bahawa Camilla yang dikahwininya pada 2005, boleh menjadi permaisuri suatu hari nanti. - AFP

Kira pihak istana nak tunjuk diplomasi ,nak ikutkan perkahwinan pertama utk pewaris takhta perlu berdarah raja atau kerabat raja...kate ni anak jotawan ....rasanya sekejap saja lepas tu fail cerai jugekkk....nampak mcm jadi kwn mmg serasi tp utk hasben n wife kena cari org lain....entahlah udah prince william berkenan tp bagai aku kata la.....x lama sebab mmg utk jadi life partner x sesuai....

Prince William to marry April 29 at WestminsterBy Keith Weir

LONDON (Reuters) - Britain's Prince William is to marry his fiancee Kate Middleton on Friday April 29 next year at London's Westminster Abbey, the 1,000-year-old church where the funeral was held for his mother Princess Diana.

William, son of heir-to-the-throne Prince Charles and the late Diana, announced his engagement to long-term girlfriend Middleton last week after a courtship lasting nearly a decade.

"We know that the world will be watching on April 29 and the couple are very, very keen indeed that the spectacle should be a classic example of what Britain does best," Jamie Lowther-Pinkerton, William's private secretary told reporters.

Britain is facing sharp cuts in public spending and Lowther-Pinkerton said that the royal family and the Middletons would pay for the service, reception and honeymoon.

He described the couple, both 28, as "over the moon" about their forthcoming marriage.

Westminster Abbey has been the site of coronations since William the Conqueror was crowned there in 1066 after the Norman invasion. The current monarch, Queen Elizabeth, was married there in 1947 and a teenaged William attended his mother Diana's 1997 funeral at the Abbey after she died in a Paris car crash.

"The couple were moved to choose the venue because of its staggering beauty, its 1,000-year royal history and in spite of its overall size, its relative intimacy," Lowther-Pinkerton said. "The venue has long associations with the royal family -- it's in many ways the royal family's church -- and of course with Prince William personally."

STRIKING A BALANCE

Retail researchers have estimated that the wedding could give a $1 billion boost to the British economy through the sale of mementoes and increased tourism.

Prime Minister David Cameron confirmed that April 29 would be a public holiday, meaning Britons will enjoy a four-day break over the May Day weekend.

However, the couple want to combine pageantry with prudence for their wedding day.
"Prince William and Miss Middleton want to ensure that a balance is struck between an enjoyable day and the current economic situation," Lowther-Pinkerton said.

"To that end, the royal family and the Middleton family will pay for the wedding."

A royal aide said the couple had always wanted a spring wedding and for it to be held on a Friday.

The wedding will come less than a week before the likely date of a referendum on moves to change the voting system for Britain's parliament and some commentators have said it risked disrupting campaigning. However, a royal aide said Cameron was very content with the date.

"The wedding of Kate and William will be a happy and momentous occasion," Cameron said in a statement.

"We want to mark the day as one of national celebration, a public holiday will ensure the most people possible will have a chance to celebrate on the day.
