The current crown can't prevent a future peerage either. But it's 
possible that the comment was a warning rather than a threat--a 
description of likely consequences, given general sentiment in the 
kingdom among current peers and likely future sovereigns.

If so, it does not necessarily reflect badly on the king--only on the kingdom.
