Delighted to be on the Ricardian Podcast to talk about Richard of England’s career. There’s a great article in the next Bulletin about Edward Brampton’s role in the story. Check it out now on the link below!

That Cromwell framed Anne for adultery and treason is not a controversial view
The question of whether or not he was acting on his own initiative or following the King’s orders is much more hotly debated.

Why monarchy has to be “go big or go home”…

[RoyalHistoryGeeks @RoyalHistGeeks]

Why is the King supreme governor of the church and not head?

[RoyalHistoryGeeks @RoyalHistGeeks]

Should the King do an Easter message?

[RoyalHistoryGeeks @RoyalHistGeeks]

Do we need younger blood among the ranks of the Royals?

A brilliant launch of Alison Weir’s The Boleyn Secret at Southwark Cathedral 🙂

Hmm.. I genuinely think something went wrong with this poll as people told me they voted Tudor early and it wasn’t recorded.
But, I think Plantagenets would have won anyway.
Hats off to our (second) French dynasty.

Okay, it’s time for the final round in the Royal house run-off. Who will triumph? The merciless core Plantagenet line (1154-1399) or the ever talked-about Tudors?

Henry IV is the only king of England buried in Canterbury Cathedral.
Why did he make that choice?

There were many formidable forces in the Tudor family tree, but few as fearless or valiant as the mighty Terror of England, Ednyfed Fychan.

To discover this warrior's remarkable story, pick up a copy of 'Son of Prophecy' now. These are the Tudors, before they became THE Tudors

@RafHM You are right constitutionally but does the Labour Party rules require the PM to be in the Commons?

[RoyalHistoryGeeks @RoyalHistGeeks]

The current UK political crisis reminds me a bit of how Richard III killed the princes in the tower, which is a proven historical fact

[Gareth Streeter @gareth_streeter]

King’s speech tomorrow.
This serves as a great reminder of how constitutional monarchy helps the wheels of government keep ticking even when there is political crisis.
We would be foolish to dispense with it.

[RoyalHistoryGeeks @RoyalHistGeeks]

@JohnLoony @OfGadsden I think something’s gone wrong with the poll as I voted Tudor on another account and it seems to have disappeared

Can the Plantagenets be stopped?

Appointing a Canon of Westminster or Windsor involves a Writ of Mandamus in addition to the Letters Patent. This use of the Writ may be unique to the Royal Peculiars. The Writ's eschatocol is unusual for an instrument which passes under the Great Seal. 1/2

Would it be better if Harry and Meghan were just Mr and Mrs Sussex?
