In time for the World Cup in Qatar, the Lionesses should identify as men. George I, George II, George III, George IV, William IV, Queen Victoria, Edward VII, George V until 1917, and all four sisters of the late Duke of Edinburgh, your girls took one hell of a beating.
But dead relatives are the least of the Royal Family's worries. There is Prince Charles's fundraising, such as would have led to anyone else's imprisonment, after Qatar again, although when it comes to the Gulf tyrannies, then he is the least of our worries. There is Prince William's having been brought down a peg or two. Much more of this, and there might very well be a republic when the Queen died.
Yet we know who wins elections in Britain, and we know who does not. Who do you think would win a British Presidential Election? Jeremy Corbyn? Nor would a British republic be less corrupt, any more than it would be classless. Less corrupt like which existing republic, exactly? Classless like which existing republic, exactly?
The republican and the monarchist cases are both rubbish in their own respective terms, but the monarchy is what we have, so we should make the best of it by seeking to exercise the Royal Prerogative in the cause of economic equality and international peace. The whole of the Royal Prerogative, that is. The Deep State would fight us to the death. That death must be its own.
Who would design a British republic?
ReplyDeleteWho, indeed? No Constitution written by them would be anything other than horrendous from our point of view.
