That’s the question asked by this article in NRO. The answer is probably no. Unlike his mother, Charles III has always been more outspoken on certain issues than the usual royal. It’s always been pretty much an open secret that Charles III not only leans to the left but he leans to the flakier side of the left. He’s the type who give strident speeches on protecting the environment but who definitely is always going to be more likely to say that other should be the ones to give up everyday conveniences while he carries on as usual.
Charles III’s political inclinations are so well-known that the original House of Cards did an entire series about a king who was obviously meant to be Charles III trying to force Francis Urquhart our of power. (The King did not succeed and the joy with which the show detailed the King’s humiliation provides an interesting insight into how many viewed the prospect of Charles becoming king.) As well, one of the rumors about why Elizabeth declined to abdicate was that she never felt that Charles III had the emotional or intellectual maturity to take her place. Whether that’s true or not, no one knows. But there’s been little about Charles III’s life that suggests he’s going to be the type of monarch that his mother was. Expect to see Charles III get political but don’t expect to see anyone pay that much attention to him.
