The King's Inactivity is Not a New Problem

[Eiric S. Bornatfiglheu]

Please, show me more mind reading through the glass heads of your opponents.

I note that the TNC are not even daring to argue that the King's level of activity is, currently, enough. We can't allow them to deflect attention that this has been a problem for most of a decade.

If anything, I kind of regret that - out of personal affection for John - I didn't insist on putting the problem this plainly in the past. Instead, I hoped programmes for reform would encourage him to "shape up or ship out", if they made a creditable threat of dismissal if he did not do so. But the TNC have put paid to any schemes in that regard, for the moment.

If the monarchy is not dealt with now, a future rogue monarch will - and in ways very bad for Talossa.
