Just so you know who Bonnie Prince Charlie's legitimate heir is. And who were the Stuarts, but the heirs of the Tudors, who were but the last of a series of Lancastrian usurpers? Unless they have all died out, there is a Yorkist somewhere with a much older claim to the throne of England.

There's probably a Welshman, or maybe even an Irishman, descended of Castelvellanus or Boadiccea with the oldest claim of all.
The last Royal Veto was the devolution of Scotland, by Queen Anne, back in the early 1700s. Maybe the next Royal Veto will be the devolution of Scotland, again.
Probably not, of course.

They're talking about Scotland, where the Stuarts were the heirs of the Bruces.
