One approach might be to establish a federal structure with a constitution to back it up and it would be a convenient and appropriate time to retire the monarchy. I'm sorry oowee but you really do spout a load of nonesense and live in a deluded world. I mean no disrespect for you at all , but look around the world at ALL of the countries and tell me which one you would prefer to live in rather than the UK and this would then explain some of your beliefs.

adzyvilla Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 Maybe time for the house of Windsor to step aside after Brenda shuffles off, but I still think a constitutional monarchy is the least worse option. Maybe we could hold a lottery to found the next dynasty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who and where is the payment of the legal fees coming from? Where did the Duchy money come from in the first place? Now Charles is under suspicion. Clearly innocent now but we should not be dependent on individuals. That cannot be right how long before we get a complete chump at the helm. How do we hold these people to account? It's time for this outdated institution to go. I would agree especially now Charles and William have gone Woke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

team tractor Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 I like the old girl . My mate knows her personally to chat too and says she’s a lovely woman with a passion for the farm life . she can’t help her family like I couldn’t help my ex wife being a crook . I do think they make a lot of money for the country in tourism but also makes us special. I vote keep please 😎👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
figgy Posted February 18, 2022 Report Share Posted February 18, 2022 Plenty complain about them yet imagine being born and living in a goldfish bowl. Having to be a certain way then your uncle abdicates and your dad dies then your it. The head of state, test its privileged but not without a lot of downsides too. I'm no royalist but I’d rather have them than be like America. There have always been and will always be a black sheep or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
