  1. Erm, nope.


  2. Actually, it's not a woman but an Australian male forklift driver, which an English historian claims to be the true "King of the United Kingdom."

    News Article from BBC NEWS world:

    A forklift truck driver in a remote Australian town is the rightful King of England, a historian has claimed. Dr Michael Jones says Queen Elizabeth's claim to the throne is false because her distant ancestor, Edward IV, was illegitimate.

    He concludes that the crown should have passed instead through another royal line which today ends at British-born Michael Abney-Hastings, 62. He said it was "unlikely" that he would go to Buckingham Palace to claim the crown.

    Dr Jones' thesis, explored in a recent television documentary, suggests that Edward IV, who reigned from 1461 to 1483, was conceived when his parents were 160 kilometres apart. His "father", Richard Duke of York, was fighting the French at Pontoise, near Paris, while his mother, Lady Cicely Neville, was at court in Rouen.

    She was said to be spending much of her time in the company of a local archer with whom she was rumoured to be having an affair. Dr Jones said Edward IV's alleged illegitimacy means the crown should instead have been passed down the Plantagenet line - ending at Mr Abney-Hastings.

    The unlikely heir lives in Jerilderie, a small town 640km southwest of Sydney, in New South Wales, where he moved from the UK as a teenager. The farm forklift truck driver said he had already known he was descendant of the Plantagenet family - and 14th Earl of Loudon in Scotland - but never guessed he could be a contender to the throne.

    Buckingham Palace, meanwhile, refused to respond specifically to the claims, saying any conclusions reached in the television documentary were "a matter for the programme makers".

  3. Nah not true.

  4. yes

  5. Not to heat my brain on it, I've learned some such from the Television documentry. This makes the current shower a pack of impostors.. I would just hate to have anyone say that about me.  Where is the shame?

  6. Anything would be better than that current old hag.

  7. The real Monarch of the UK is the one who has been appoved by Parliament and has succeeded according to the Law of Sucession. That means that HM Queen Elizabeth II is the REAL Queen of the UK.

  8. Rachelle and Il Jenny are correct.

  9. hahahahah.. YOU thought you'd type a silly question.....BUT  the jokes on you isn't it because apparently the man who SHOULD be king ...... is a man living in Australia in a small town in Southern New South Wales town called Jerilderie

    and from  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jerilderie :

    King" Michael

    Medieval scholar, Dr Michael Jones claims Queen Elizabeth's claim to the throne is illegitimate because King Edward IV, who reigned from 1461 to 1483, was not of royal blood; he was the illegitimate son of a French archer. Dr Jones concludes that tracing the correct path, British-born Michael Abney-Hastings, 14th Earl of Loudoun who migrated to Jerilderie in the 1960s is the true King of England and the Commonwealth.[citation needed]

    EDIT: sorry Rachell I didn't see your answer before I replied.

    THUMBS DOWN TO THE PEOPLE WHO GAVE YOU THE THUMBS DOWN BTW.....

  10. Probably it certainly is not the German geriatric puppet who is on the throne now.

  11. No, its a woman called Liz from London.

  12. yes, the real royals live down under and probably eat kangaroo.

  13. Actually it's a woman called Noelene from Australia. Her husband Mike is apparantly the true heir to our throne.

  14. I hope not.

  15. No, the real queen of the UK is the current female head of the House of Windsor, the one with all the regalia and who does all the waving and appointing of Prime Ministers. Whether she SHOULD be queen is a different matter. Yes, she should. She's the oldest daughter of George VI, the last king. See how it works?
