Is it really necessary to get rid of the monarchy? Wouldn’t it just cause an awful lot of fuss when there are more immediate and pressing issues to be addressed?And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment

I think the Queen has done a pretty decent job. However, I do NOT believe that Charles will ever be properly accepted by the majority of the Public after the whole Diana/Camilla fiascos. It would make more sense to simply skip a generation and go to William, but constitutionally they would never agree to that. So I say, when the Queen passes away, we should simply allow it to phase out quietly.“The period of the disintegration of the European Union has begun.

Originally posted by shaunbhoy View PostI DON'T have a say in such matters. Nor does anyone else. Therein lies a large part of the problem.
In other words, as long as dimwitted chavs have the vote, I'll support keeping the monarchy.
Move to a meritocratic system of ´citizenship´ and voting instead of a nationalistic system, where the merits of the individual are tested in some politically neutral fashion, such as intelligence testing or tests of reasoning, and I would feel happier entrusting power to the plebs.
I actually agree that a monarch is an anachronism, but it´s an anachronism that can be a protection against mob rule in turbulent times.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment

Would have been a refreshing alternative to KNOB rule!!

Anyway, I don't like those chairs with matching curtains. Not my taste at all.
