My Take On The British Monarchy By Godfrey Eneas The Monarchy of the United Kingdom is a British Institution which is dear to the hearts of the British people.This affection was manifested this past week for their Queen of 70 years. She passed away leaving a legacy ,some say, unmatched by Elizabeth 1 and Victoria. Simultaneously, there was an outpouring of lo ve and affection for her successor who became King Charles iii.I have lived all of those 70 years with her as my Head of State in a Colonial and Independent Bahamas respectively.I have seen her at a distance on the occasions when she visited The Bahamas to fulfill some ceremonial undertakings. As a student at ICTA/UWI in Trinidad and Tobago, she also visited an Independent T&T when Dr.Eric Williams was Prime Minister and saw her close up as Prince Philip came to meet one of my student colleagues, Middleton Archibald.
