she is considered as not working for the restoration of Monarchy.
By whom? How many people feel that way?
How many are the real ones ? 5 % of the Romanians ??
Nicholas de Roumanie Medforth Mills is important not to be seen as a " continuity" of his aunt because she is considered as not working for the restoration of Monarchy.
1.Constitutional Monarchy is a form of democracy.I find this pretty insulting for a lady who, as no one else in the royal family, has put all her zest in giving a meaningful role for the former royal family.
30% monarchist means 70% no monarchists. Princess Margareta knows her statistics and understands reality. It is not so difficult: there is NO majority and NO zest to topple the democracy for a hereditary monarchy. Simple enough.
What if Princess Margareta decides to create her nephew Nicholas Prince of Romania again and makes a successor again? Will you then come here to claim that Princess Margareta has no right to do that?????
Offending the monarchists that made so many sacrifices for the cause in the last 28 years is really sad not to say shameful. The only ones that try to bring back the Monarchy are offended only because they do not agree to accept the republican compromises made on behalf " of the Royal house".Recent exchanges have confirmed what has been evident for quite some time. The disputes about the succession are not based on principles; it's all just sordid politics. A mafia of pseudo-monarchists led by a handful of journalists with an axe to grind (because the Royal House will not do their bidding or adopt the strategy that they believe in) are trying to hijack the monarchist movement and are hell-bent on discrediting Margareta and any who support her because her success means their loss of influence. They will promote anyone as an alternative to achieve their ends. Nicholas is the current sacrificial lamb in this campaign - until he understands that they are using him as a means of attacking his family, and that they are a main cause of the problems he has in his relationship with his entire birth family. They cannot give him the crown because they have no real power and certainly zero moral authority. They are certainly doomed to failure.

The disputes about Succession are based on principles something certain people can't accept at all. Accepting invented titles is more comfortable for people that ignore the Romanian royal tradition.
Nicholas was sacrificed by some of his own family
(certainly not by the King) not certainly by the monarchists.
You keep putting monarchist and journalists ahead of those this is actually about; the Royal Family. This is always doomed to fail when so much energy is spent on trying to elevate a monarchist as ‘the righteous one’, and the actual dynasts and successors as infidels and interlopers.
Andy is absolutely correct. You and others have found it practical recently, because nothing else has worked, to hitch your agenda onto Nicholas, and try to use him as a tool in your campaign against the one lady working for the monarchy and Royal Family tirelessly, Margareta, who the King entrusted with the future of the dynasty.
It’s just a transparent continuation of the undermining of the House of Romania that has been going on, and the only sad part about it is that you and those that do it, do not see that it can lead to absolutely no good. There will never again be a throne to ascend in Romania if Margareta fails in her efforts, and with Nicholas as her natural successor, time would easily take care of this situation, if they were given the support of everyone who claims to be behind the greater cause.
If the question of restoration and a change to monarchy is on the agenda, let’s say five years from now, the Royal Family might decide themselves, alongside politicians, that the right thing to do is to start with the next generation. That will however, not happen, if a campaign to damage the head of the Royal Family continues.
It can only happen when cooler and reasonable heads prevail, and the faux monarchists are doing nothing to make that happen at the moment.

The only one who offends here is you, constantly sniping towards Princess Margareta.
Attacking Princess Margareta and Princess Helena means attacking Nicholas himself. After all his former position in the (proposed) hereditary succession is based on the fact that he is the eldest child of the eldest sister o3f the -childless- eldest daughter of the late King. When his aunt and his mother are no hereditary successors, Nicholas can not be a hereditary successor either.
Imagine that King George VI died now and you say: David Armstrong-Jones should be King and not his mother Princess Margaret or his aunt Princess Elizabeth. That is exactly what you are doing here with Nicholas. Just desilusional.

You compare a clear line of Succession like in he UK with a proposed and modified line that is in Romania. There us obviously no comparison.
But you advocate Nicholas.
On base of what? His nice eyes?
No: because he is the son of HRH Princess Elena of Romania, second daughter to the late King.
When you believe in the system of a hereditary monarchy, in which a royal dynasty is continued by procreation, you can not ignore that there are two persons from a preceding generation before Nicholas. It is as simple as that.
What you advocate is no monarchy. You advocate X-Factor Romania.
I do not need lessons about Monarchy from who's supporting the republic.
I do not support Nicholas but I am sorry for how he was treated by some of his own family and I realize his popularity.
Ah... "I do not support Nicholas".
We have come to a conclusion. Amen and Hallelujah. Then we can end this perpetuum mobile and discuss the pretender who who has your support indeed. And that is not Nicholas, as you have stated in black and white in the quote above.
Custodians are in the museums and such invented title has nothing to do with the Royal Family.
Why dont you recognize once and for all who really tried to exclude Nicholas de Roumanie Medforth Mills from the Family and from Romania?
As a republican probably you do not see certain nuances. To believe the rightful one is one is ok but we can't ignore the reality and we have to see how popular Nicholas de Roumanie Medforth Mills is.
That is an argument which has to be blown up with a bazooka.
We can not ignore the reality and we have to see how popular Cristiano Ronaldo is.
Yeay! Cristiano for King (of Portugal)!
Certainly Nicholas de Roumanie Medforth Mills is a member of the late King's Family so the comparison is ridiculous .
