Right But Repulsive?
If my Facebook timeline has been anything to go by, then republicanism is still as joyful and joyous as it was under Cromwell. You'll never win like this, and that is probably just as well.
Just as the monarchy does not do anything that monarchists want it to do, a republic would not do anything that republicans wanted it to do. They both know it.
It's a kind of permanent grievance that some people have.
