Good, I was just about to post this too again. The rules have not been changed to exclude PA and the Stoat, the rules go back hundreds of years. The press headlines were to gaslight us into believing that the Stoat had "suffered a crushing blow... humiliated" by being dropped as a CoS. Rubbish.In a nutshell, Harry and Andrew are Counsellors of State because they are high up in the line of succession and are over 21.
They have not been removed from the line of succession, therefore they are still Counsellors of state until William's children come of age and replace them.
A C of S has to be of age.
So even though William's kids are higher up in the line of succession, they can't be C of S until they are of age.
Anne and Edward were recently made C of S.
They were added so it is less likely that either Andrew or Harry would be called upon (For obvious reasons, ie, Andrew is disgraced and Harry can only be called upon if he is domiciled in the UK.)
The "only working royals" bit is just press chatter.
The rules were not changed to exclude non working royals.
Hope that clarifies.
The real reason he should have been dropped as a CoS 4 years ago is that he doesn't live in the UK. He's breaking the law, and constitutional experts are unhappy about this.
He's still a CoS.
I hope William sorts it out.
