Polling shows that many people have a critical view of the royals and do not support the way they operate – for example their secrecy or tax-avoidance – or the public money that’s spent on them. Most people weren’t particularly interested in the jubilee in 2012 or the royal wedding in 2011; royal events are very much a minority interest.
I watched the video on their assets and more… wow

Trace, in order to become a New Zealand citizen I had to promise allegiance to the Queen and all her “minions.” We can’t even become a full democracy here.

Allow the Queen one last action as head of the British monarchy, with the final waving of her “Royal Scepter” to magically fix the Brexit nightmare using her supernatural blue-blood powers, – and then, yes, absolutely abolish the monarchy. Hahaha.

It’s looks like the UK will be having a new election quite soon, Jerry. And with so many people getting kicked out of the Conservative Party, I’m really hoping Jeremy Corbin will have a good shot at being prime minister. That will be a real breath of fresh air.

I currently live in New Zealand, which remains a constitutional monarchy with Queen Elizabeth as head of state. There are growing movements both here and in Australia for our countries to become full republics.
