Jordan's King Abdullah seeks 'consensus' on prime minister
QuoteKing Abdullah II on Sunday told newly elected MPs that he seeks to reach "consensus" with them before naming a prime minister, and hailed the "historic transformation" towards parliamentary government in Jordan.

"We will start... this new approach by consulting over the government's formation with the lower house and parliamentary blocs as they take shape, in order to reach consensus that leads to the designation of a prime minister" he told the opening of parliament.

This has happened so fast. A Prime Minister for Jordan! WOW!

Windsor

Jordan is fast developing into a Parliamentary Democracy with a Constitutional Monarch. Quite a good move, though I do hope the King retains reserve powers just in case, these Middle Eastern countries are always prone to being overrun with people who have very extremist views of the world.

I am happy they are moving forward, but you are right about the underlying dangers involved. It may take some time before the new form of government runs smoothly or is stable, especially in that region. I wish them well!

QuoteQueen Rania Looks Lovely... But Have We Seen That Dress On Another Royal? (PHOTOS)

We get lots of quality British royal time, but what about the chic queens and princesses abroad? Thankfully Queen Rania is out and about these days, spending time with the Duchess of Cornwall in Jordan.

Camilla and Prince Charles (oh yeah, he's there too) are in the midst of a royal tour of the Middle East, kicking off the trip with a three-day stay in Jordan. The trip is intended to bolster diplomatic relations between Jordan and Great Britain, but also gives us the fun perk of checking out what Queen Rania's been wearing lately -- she is, after all, a HuffPost Style fave.

She makes the dress look so good! Love how she accesorized it with that belt. Perfect.

Always be yourself.  Unless you can be a unicorn.  Then always be a unicorn.

 :lol: And Queen Rania definitely wins. To be fair, when Zara was trying that dress on, it didn't seem to be her size, also I don't like the belt she wore with it.
