I am surprised at John Parry's meanness of spirit and intolerance towards Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles now they have "come out" about their relationship (Argus, June 23).

But surely no one can deny Charles and Diana's marriage was disastrous and they were obviously completely unsuitable for each other.

Millions of fair minded people have realised there were victims on all sides. Tragic as Diana's death was, life has to go on and we should be grateful the Queen and Royal Family have finally accepted Camilla.

Mr Parry paints a picture of the Royal spin doctors leading us morons by the noses and dictating to us how we should meekly accept this heinous situation.

These are not Victorian times and we are quite capable of making up our own minds.
