Abolish the monarchy!

It's an anachronism.

Dereliction of Duty! The convict has these folks thinking they don’t have to adhere to the Constitution. Come on Democrats get on the news, call a news conference and read the Constitution to the American people concerning the illegal acts these sycophants are committing.

They only exist because we are conditioned, all our lives, to see them as greater than us. There is no practical nor moral reason a monarchy should be a thing.
And, I also believe, they are part of the reason brits keep voting tory.

The reform party nativity scene.

No unmarried mothers. No Middle Eastern people. No refugees. No people seeking emergency accommodation.

And not a wise fvcking man in sight…

The migrant did not escape. He was released. He was escorted out of the prison and sent on his way. Why should he be expected to return?

The monarchy is not simply a Disney in the UK. It distorts our democracy. There is no place for a monarch in a real democracy.
This is not about personalities. It's not about whether we like the family members. It's about government by the people, all the people.
Time to grow up.

Rejoining by stealth won't work, the EU won't buy it.

There needs to be a clearly stated UK intention to rejoin the EU, so that all the things we want to achieve along the way to improve opportunities anx trade are seen by EU member states as part of a process and not as cakism.

It would be more practical and cost less to re-join quickly and efficiently as possible with least hassle and make changes required diplomatically as a member: We have the disadvantage of years passing and catching-up with legislation required eg Pharmacy where the EU system in place is excellent!

It's surely time for the whole monarchy thing to be scrapped. We need a grown up constitution, clear and written down.
We want to live in a real democracy.

We must act now: without a written constitution, Reform UK will have carte blanche to toxify our nation | Goerge Monbiot It means breaking with hundreds of years of tradition, but it can’t wait. As hard-right figures spread division and laud autocrats, a fail-safe is vital, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot

Where now for the UK?
