I agree with the move to change the Constitutional Monarchy's succession law because i believe in the rights of equally between male and females and i think that we are now in an age where females should have as much rights to the throne as males, look at out Queen now, she is more than satisfactory and i think that a person's capability to uphold that kind of duty cannot by determined by their gender. I do think however, that the Government needs a mandate to change this law because democracy demands this as part of being the country that we are.

Indeed. Like changes to the budget, changes to the succession ought to be included in any policy program. But they won't be of course, because the Government doesn't want to look like it's wasting time on irrelevant issues...
