[edit] Inclusion of PC in addition to The Right Honourable
Articles about members of the British Privy Council have both included, as 'PC' is a postnominal. - (Royalist0007 06:59, 25 January 2006 (UTC))
- Quote from Privy Council of the United Kingdom:
- Though the Privy Council as a whole is "The Most Honourable", individual Privy Counsellors are entitled to the style "The Right Honourable". Peers who are Privy Counsellors also append the post-nominal letters "PC", but commoners do not. Peers are already entitled to the style "The Right Honourable", if not a higher style, even when they are not Privy Counsellors; thus, the letters "PC" are necessary to indicate membership of the Council. For commoners, on the other hand, "The Right Honourable" is sufficient identification as a Privy Counsellor
- I have removed the PC post-nominal. Cheers. JackofOz 08:34, 25 January 2006 (UTC)
