Especially when the speaker mumbles.

I'm also Australian and I certainly admire and respect the King and is family. Nevertheless, I am extremely disappointed that, for whatever good reason, Charles has not yet even visited Australia as King of Australia and Australia's Head of State! Our country deserves and needs a Head of State who is committed to it. One who actively represents us and promotes Australia, its business and commerce. King Charles is a good and noble person, and he's obviously very busy - BUT mate!...being Head of State of our beautiful country is NOT a part-time job where you never need to show up. It's high time that Australia elected a President - a man or woman who has the time and commitment to actually be in Australia and to serve the Australian people as a Head of State should.

@@theon9575Perhaps because he’s fighting CANCER??

@@destonhaarstad855 yes indeed, and he has my sincere sympathies. And that's what I referenced with the phrase "for whatever good reason". But I'm saying that Australia needs a Head of State who is committed to Austrlia because it's an important full-time job,at least. If we had a President, full-time promoting Australia and living in Canberra but is now 75 years old and was 'fighting cancer', then I would feel deeply sorry for them. But I would also think it might be time for them to retire from the Presidency, and for him/her to be replaced. This job "Head of State" is important and could achieve a lot for our country - look at the excellent elected President of Ireland, for example. it's not a job you can really do properly for 15 different countries at the same time, some on the other side of the world, by a 96 year-old lady or a 75 year-old man fighting cancer and so never visited. Or put the other way around, if being Head of State of 15 different countries at the same time is something an old lady of 96 years can do, then there can't be much to it. And that is no personal comment or disrespect for the late Queen or her son.

The Princess Royal has not served in the military, as is custom in the Royal Family, she has Honorary commissions in all three services. The medals are various anniversary, jubilee, order and coronation medals awarded to her by the monarch.
