Who going to be the next king after queen Elizabeth I thought by price Charles being divorce he couldn't be king?
I'm not sure which "Prince Charles" you're referring to in conjunction with Elizabeth I. Elizabeth I was at one time in negotiations to marry Charles II of Austria, but he was an Archduke, not a Prince. There weren't any close relations of Elizabeth I'm aware of named Charles who would have been viable candidates for the throne ... her cousin James V's brother-in-law was named Charles, but again wasn't a Prince, wasn't in line for the throne, and wasn't even English. He was also a Roman Catholic Cardinal, which presented an even bigger problem than all the above. Neither of them were divorced, anyway.I'm guessing you mean Elizabeth II, who does have a son Charles who is the Heir Apparent. There's no evidence I'm aware of that Elizabeth has any plans for anyone other than Charles to become King when she dies.It may be that you've heard rumors that the next King of England will be George VII. This is possible and perhaps even likely, but not because Elizabeth has disinherited Charles: Prince Charles' full name is Charles Philip Arthur George. Charles I and II were ... unpopular (Charles I was beheaded, and Charles II was rather scandalous, having acknowledged a dozen illegitimate children by seven different mistresses). Philip as a regnal name is more associated with Spain and France, with whom the English haven't always seen eye-to-eye (In particular Philip II of Spain, whose Spanish Armada was defeated by the English), so that's probably out. Arthur has its own problems, and it can't help that one of the most famous works about King Arthur is entitled the Death of Arthur (Charles is already the oldest heir apparent in English history and may not outlive his mother by much). That leaves George, which has a great deal to recommend it: Charles' grandfather, Albert Frederick Arthur George, used his own last given name when he took the throne as George VI and was fairly popular, as was his own father George V.
What does he has refused his assent to laws the most wholesome and nessary for the public good mean?
Assent means "agreement." In this case, Jefferson was asserting that King George III was refusing his agreement with, or giving the okay to, laws that the Colonies had passed, most of which were to benefit the general welfare of the colonial population.
