Both ‘the Prince of Wales’ as a title and the person who holds it have a unique but controversial place in Welsh culture and society. There are some in Wales who dislike both and want them gone, and some who love that the title exists and see the person who holds it as being an honour for Wales as a country and as part of the UK. Some view the very existence of the title as proof that Wales is, or is seen as, inferior or beholden to England.

Yet the title itself holds no true power and its holder performs no real function in modern Wales. Perhaps it should either be endowed with real meaning, or done away with, one or the other?
