The Queen's assistant should have responded to Mr L ... of Hutt River Station, thanking him for his kind letter.
That one of her staff would address him as 'Prince' is an insult to the many legitimate foreign title-holders who Her Majesty has declined to receive under their foreign titles. For example, when President Kennedy was in London for his state visit, Jackie K wanted her sister, Lee, and her bother-in-law, who was a Radziwell Prince, invited to the State banquet. HM The queen insisted that they could only come as Mr and Mrs Radziwell. That indicates how strongly HM hoved to the UK convention that only UK titles can be used officially in the UK.
Prince Leonard's titles was not even a legitimate title. Why would Mrs Bernici use it, still less seem to have HM acknowledge the PHRP?
