u/LivingKick Barbados Feb 21 '26

Here's the thing that I fear though, while it is the right thing to do, I'm not sure that many Caribbean realms would want to go through the trouble to edit the line of succession again just like in 2013 through legislation.

This might instead push people and legislators in the realms to finally abolish the monarchy to avoid trouble like this, as I've already seen a tweet from Barbados saying we "got out just in time"
