Prince Charles's wife launched a new Liner at Southampton today.
This is usually a job for the Queen.
Do you think that Camila is the right person for the job?

no, the Queen should have done it...the fact that the bottle didn't break on the ship is an omen that this ceremony was done wrong....

It's a job for a royal, not necessarily the Queen. As the wife of the Heir Apparent, Camilla is second in line of precedence (females) after the Queen.

Why ever not? the Queen cannot be everywhere and it is quite usual for the other members of the British Royal Family to go out on engagements.

Certainly, she did it as a deputy for the Queen, as the wife of the heir apparent , she is entitled to do so!

Why?
Is it a particularly hard job launching a liner; I thought you just smashed a bottle and said the ship's name, who cares who does it?!

It was a totally pointless exercise.
She didn't launch it , she only named it.
A ship built in Italy ,owned by an American company and crewed by foreigners.
Perhaps the queen refused.

Yes, she needs experience as much as any other royal. It's a good confidence builder.
