Great Britain eke Northern Ireland wrote:As a Briton, few things are as offensive and naïve as the idea of abolishing our monarchy, especially at a time like this. The monarchy is an institution that is core to our identity and our history as a nation and is the cornerstone upon which this Union is founded. Besides, this is not even a matter for foreigners (excluding Canadians, Australians, etc, as the King is their monarch too) to discuss - they most often lack the context and the understanding necessary for the topic.
Thankfully, the joy, cheer and somber well wishes for our King and our monarchy from the people are enough of a demonstration that we will not be losing our monarchy soon. I take joy in how republicans have been shut down as of late (specifically thinking of the matter when some republican yelled at the royal procession and people began singing the anthem in his face; served him right).

Jewish Underground State wrote:Given that Anti Monarchy protests have started against King Charles The III this raises the question, should the british monarchy be brought down. There have been talks about this for years as the monarchy is basically using tax payer money on their fancy mansions and other fancy projects. However some people claim the monarchy is important to british culture and national identity and that "Britain has no future". So should the british monarchy end or will it continue on after Queen Elizabeth's passing.
To me either choice means nothing. Even if the monarchy gets brought down they will still be rich aristocrats and have a huge influence on british culture.
Whoever guesses the reference correctly first wins an imaginary medal.
(Side note i'm not British I'm American so sorry if I messed up any details.)

Virtually every communist/socialist regime barely lasted a century (failing due to their "dear leaders' own ignorance and insolence), but the monarchies (while yes, we had some pretty fucked-up kings), especially Britians', lasted almost a millennia. And the leftists hate that, how one of the very things they despise lasted longer than any leftist regime. It's envy, jealousy. The same type that has today's "revolutionaries" crying "Eat the Rich", not because of any "exploitation", but because many of those millionaires and billionaires worked their asses off to gain their wealth (making more cash from their inventions and economic knowledge than any leftist "liberator" on Earth), while the communist leaders needed some gullible twits to do their dirty work for them.
Yes, I'm quite aware of some of the fucked-up shit some monarchies do, but when it comes to being dicks to the people who look up to you, the Left needs to have an electoral on that because they're VERY good at giving the bird to their supporters.
