It seems of late that there has been some amount of effort
to humanize the British Royal family such that the average person could
possibly relate to the family as normal people.
We have had Prince Harry shown in the news while nude and partying in Las Vegas. We have had Kate Middleton (the wife of
Prince William) photographed partially clad by the swimming pool. And now we have the latest telephone crank-call
of the hospital housing a pregnant Kate by an Australian radio disk-jockey;
wherein healthcare information was apparently relayed by a hospital nurse to
the disk-jockey(s) while broadcast live on the air.
What could be the motivation for attempting such a feat as humanizing
the British Royals to the point that they are like regular folks, one might
ask? Well, it seems to this blogger that
the populace of the United Kingdom could well determine that they no longer
care to support such a tourist attraction as the Royal Family once Queen
Elizabeth eventually passes the reign of the monarchy. Of course, I could be wrong as to the popular
sentiment of those in the U.K. But I believe the psychological-type of
reasoning goes something like… that when a potential adversary realizes he has
some control over the fate of another of whom he cares not, if the adversary
views those whose fate he controls as being more human and more of an
individual, the otherwise adversarial individual is more sympathetic to the plight of the
other person and less likely to rally for the other’s extinction – similar to hostage situations and the Lima
Syndrome, from what I’m told, which is sort of the opposite of the Stockholm
Syndrome.
So, why would the Royals care one way or another for such a
situation as their being humanized if not assimilated amongst the
commoners? Well, it has been generalized
to me that the Crown of England owns everything that is not owned by the Vatican. If so, it is likely that some amount of the
Crown’s holdings may be dependent on the title and social position of the Royal
Family itself. As such, if the Royal
Family was ousted by the populace of the U.K., many of the Royals’ holdings
could be put in jeopardy – as they would then no longer have their status and
position in addition to no longer having the force of the British/U.K.
government to back them to any degree.
Therefore, if the people of the U.K. were to see the Royals
as being more human rather than merely ostentatious figure heads, the populace
might be less likely to oust the Royals when the opportunity presents itself or
when the notion surfaces when Elizabeth passes.
Because, the fact of the matter is, what purpose does the continuation
of the monarchy serve or what function could it perform for the government or
the people of the U.K.? Moreover, if
the people of the U.K.
were to oust the Royals, the feat could be done in such a manner which could include the State
taking all of the Royals’ financial holdings by claiming that such holdings
were amassed at the expense of the government.
Any ouster and takings from the Royals would all be quite
ironic, really, when one thinks about the implications of it all. It would be like bitter pay-backs for more
than a millennium’s worth of feudal mortmain and escheat (a ‘legal’ event where
the Crown would take land from the owner for occurrences such as dying without
heirs, not performing feudal duties, or committing suicide, and the
likes).

P.S. Of course, maybe, one could say that I have thought
too much on the whole subject, or conversely, that I have not thought enough
about it all. :)
Aftermath note: Speaking of the Australian radio disc jockey joker's, one never knows what might result from one's irresponsible actions:

Duped By Prank Callers
Then again, could the Royals have had this nurse killed/murdered as a statement or example of what happens when the Royals are made the butt of jokes due to the screw-up of an individual?
