Re: Your views on the Monarchy?As a royalist im strictly against you on that(Original post by Algorithm69)
As a Republican I am strictly against the Monarchy. I believe it is an archaic, undemocratic, and simply embarrassing system to have in a 21st century advanced country such as the UK. The Americans figured this out in 1776.
To make matters worse, not only is the Monarch the Head of State, he/she is also the Head of the State Church. Another ridiculous thing to have in an age of religious freedom and secularism.
So it is quite clear for me: it needs to go. We need to replace it with an elected president.
And don't get me started on the House of Lords.
