How much do we love our Queen?

Or pine for Herr Cromwell?

Want a republic or a royal Kingdom?

It's a republic for me...

As long as they remain profitable and good for the Country then I think they are ok.

Prince Andrew has a few questions too answer though about Epstein.

I don't like the idea that some guy will become king of a country purely based on the fact that his mother has died

Royalist here, it’s not like they rule the country with an iron fist like the old days, parliament does that. They’re a good source of revenue for the country and they only take a percentage back by way of the royal grant. Despite what most anti royals say, they work bloody hard and basically have to live their lives in a fish bowl with a thousand cameras pointing at them.

Politicians do come and go and the people get to choose them. That's democracy

Republican.

I can't say that I entirely dislike the queen but I do view her as part of the bigger problem.

I also don't agree with how many of the Eton set of MP's are related to her. I think the British upper class are the biggest drain on our society there is.

Additionally, a lot of the royals in other countries have proper jobs and earn their keep... Everybody else has to and we're quick to slag off the unemployed in this country... It's all just something of a double standard I don't care for anymore.

The wealth inequality in this country is absolutely perverse given our pretty comfortable position as a whole.

Payback time is overdue. They and a few others have amassed huge wealth and privilege at the expense of the people.

Everyone should be equal and it's a constant message to all citizens that most are inferior, whilst a ruling family hold superior status to the majority. Full equality is overdue.

So the Queen worked during ww2.

Andrew flew helicopts in navy, and did very well in the falklands.

William did ambulance helicopters, but had to stop.

Harry killed people via helicopter (i see a theme)

I would count them as jobs.

Most of the minor royals now have to have jobs, some are very much jobs for the boys type, bit still working.

But the royal family don’t rule over anything. The queen is our head of state but isn’t our ruler. And the queen pays tax voluntarily when she is exempt, she chooses to pay it.

So if william was still flying rescue helicopters and you needed his help would you turn him away due to being a royal?

They're all "jobs for the boys" that anybody else would have to work their way up for outside of that social standing.

I suppose it's a privilege you either do or don't agree with though really...

The job he did for free btw, he donated his salary to charity and only gave it up to take some of the burden of royal duties from his beloved granny.

I seem to remember her being shamed into paying taxes

All I know is that most countries in the world seem to do perfectly well without an hereditary head of state

Not just anybody can fly an apache helicopter you know. Only the top 1% of the top pilots have the ability to fly them. As an example, they have to learn to operate each eye independently of each other. One eye controls the nose gun via a monocle and the other reads instruments. Once mastered they can read and process two books at the same time but only a few can do it. I’d say Harry did well to land that job and he was forced off the front line to protect his mates as he was a high value target, he didn’t want to put his mates lives at risk to protect him.

She's a nice enough wee woman...and does exactly what is asked of her without moaning. But I don't see the point in the royal family or believe they should be held in any high regard or are owed respect simply due to an accident of birth.

Not shamed into paying tax, but into declairing how much.

Till this year, the highest female tax payer.

Paid.more.tax than earnt.

Now if you look at a politician who claimed a rememberance day wreath on expenses, do you think the Queen did the same?

Fair enough... Surely he could therefore survive off the salary, as I would imagine other servicemen and women have to and the "allowances" can come to an end? The Windsor's would still be a very wealthy family with the money they have already acquired and I think all their handouts are overdue coming to an end; They should indeed be pursuing interesting careers and earning wages.

People are not equal here. My points stand.
