No gods, no kings, death to all royalty.

Can't agree more. I personally don't see why the chinless wonders should be counted as special because their great great... ...great granddad was a bigger murdering bastard than mine. If it was up to me we'd scrap the monarchy and separate church from state tomorrow.

Prussian Constitutionism > HM Government

You need royalty to bring in tourism cash.

Not really, the only people who come for the royals seem to be the Americans.

It's because it's like a zoo. They get to see something that no one needs.

Re 4 day weekend. Remember what happened when they declared new years eve for the millenium a bank holiday- just about about bastard still went to work.
Mickey Mouse bank holidays are rarely acknowledged.

As for the reasons I will second the utter apathy.

I don't celebrate Christmas but I still got time off from school during December.

Who cares? It'll be nice.
