Monarchy doesn't work.
Every time a Spaniard criticises King Juan Carlos, I want to scream at them to try living in Spain between 1931 and 1975 and see if it suits them better. You owe your right to criticise the government to the former King; to then use that right to insult him and attack his family is frankly disgusting. Socialists have short memories.

This is some straight up bullshit here.
Nothing makes anyone above criticism. Juan Carlos was not a saint. And while he may have played a role in Spain's return to constitutional government, this does not make him above criticism.

I live in Belgium, so that would be a no.
Scotland also proved that the monarchy is a very sensitive and not at all "apolitical personification of the nation."
