Master Archie Mountbatten-Windsor

While a lot of people are apathetic about the monarchy, I'd wager that when push comes to shove they'd be pretty antipathetic towards Another Fucking Politician taking their place.

Who said anyone had to take their place?

[Bear Stearns]

I'd be partial to an American monarchy, but our oligarchic families (Bush, Clinton, DuPont, Pritzker, etc.) are such trash that they'd be worthy of the guillotine. Giving these psychotic narcissists landed titles would just make them even worse.

We would need to track down some descendants of the Founding Fathers and pick one who is a good person who has accomplished something. I believe that there are still descendants of John Adams running around.

Well if monarchs are abolished and no politicians take their place there is no head of state whatsoever.

I'd guess it'd become the head of government.

The queen is good as a figurehead, I don't want Theresa may taking that role.

You could have the head of state be someone else who has been historically prominent in British society, such as First Sea Lord or Fleet Commander of the Royal Navy.

What would happen if Trump's kids had all married British nobles.

The Monarchy would be abolished.

As would the British nobles' heads.

"You know those guys who kicked the shittiness of monarchy off our half of the continent almost a quarter of a millenia ago?"

"Yeah, what about them?"

"Lets track down their descendants and unironically make one of them a monarch."

Logic: 100

Ok but that was in response to the question "who said anyone had to take their place?"

Yeah, this is an absolute joke. We should have the actual British monarchy instead. (Though if we had to pick an American constitutional monarch, I'd go with Bill Gates. He's one of the few rich people who actually uses his fortune to help people.)

[Ifreann]

More common, I believe.


The idea of noblesse olige obviously does not invalidate all complaints against hereditary nobility.

---

You already have in all but name.

It does invalidate all complaints but see my specific post and think of a complaint it does not invalidate please.

Hereditary nobility is inherently unjust, no matter what the nobles do with their time or money. It is wrong for some people to be born with superior legal status.

So there is no reason to do it.

Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, has gone into labour.

It follows weeks of speculation about when Meghan, 37, might give birth - but no details have been given about where she is having her baby.

Rhiannon Mills, Sky's Royal correspondent said: "It was in the early hours of this morning when the Duchess went into labour and the Duke was by her side."

The pregnancy was announced in October, as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex began their first major overseas tour of Australia and New Zealand, and they were expecting the baby to arrive in the spring.

Your thoughts on the amazing event about to strike the Royal Family, the Commonwealth and the United Kingdom?

FInally maybe facebook will stop posting endless adds about what Megan Breathed about, thought of, Dared to dream about it. I am surprised how poorly the press treats Megan after what happened to Diana. They Caused Diana's death in 97 If they aren't careful they will cause a repeat. Why can't people just leave them alone its not like being 7th or 8th to the throne Baby sussex don't even get an HRH not saying its unimportant its just not that big of a deal that ever other thing on facebook needs to start with Megan Markle did......

Tons of people have done things for fun. It's a great reason to do something.

If something happens like after the queen and her husband dies then Harry becomes king, say he dies so now other prince is King making an American queen so America rrjoins the monarchy.

BALANCE RESTORED!!!

Lol, but yeah good for the Kardashians, I I mean UK.

[Saiwania]

37 years of age is a bit old for a woman to be having children. This is probably her one if not second to last chance, to ever reproduce. She's not a White British however, so her marriage to British royalty is a mistake in my view. Prince Harry chose poorly, that is always going to be my opinion.

Why ? Most of your monarchs were German or French.

Hey Saiwania, what country is Prince Philip from?

HINT: It isn't Britain.

A car accident caused by the press, followed by the press hindering the rescue effort.

How did the press cause an accident or hinder the rescue?

How did the press cause an accident or hinder the rescue?

Giving a high speed pursuit, followed by surrounding the crash site to take pictures, shoving aside rescue workers in the hope of getting a good shot.

I agree although the cause of that was those photographers lack of moral compass, regard for life or dignity and indeed a lack of deference.

Strict scrutiny about any royal's supposed lack of adherence to royal protocol does not mean that would happen again.


The photographers
in question should have been investigated for manslaughter and sentenced harshly.


I agree there is bile about Meghan Markle but i disagree that strict scrutiny
is the same as promoting trash photographers.

[Vassenor]

So how much cash are we pretending that abolishing the monarchy will save today?
