Stonewall wants members of the Royal Family to be able to contract civil partnerships and then, should they inherit, to reign as joint monarchs with their civil partners.
It is certainly news to me, indeed I am not even sure that it is the case, that anyone contracting a civil partnership (which, since it does not need to be consummated, ought to be available to unmarried close relatives) thereby renounces any claim to the throne.
But whether or not such is already the case, it certainly ought to be.
Marrying and producing a natural heir is what we pay the monarch to do.
