Now that Boris Johnson is fucked we shall elect the new Prime Minister of the UK.
I have no horse in this race but every UK politics discussion should start with:
Monarchy in 2022... why?
the crown lands, as well as the monarch personal belongings are national assets, so they stay with the republic and not in former monarch possession. So apart of this, everything you said makes sense (I don't agree the reasons are enough to justify a Monarchy but still are valid arguments).Interesting question but doesn't really have a satisfying answer.
They own a surprising amount of land that they allow the public to use, if we were to somehow got rid of the monarchy not only would we lose effective ambassadors we would lose that land tied to them (as long as we didn't revolt) they also help the economy by bringing in tourists from around the world. They have very little real actual power as that has been handed over to the government and generally bring in more money that gets spent on them.
I also vote forI vote for Daisy!
Fuck yes I would take one for the team if it meant Scotland got rid of the wee ginger cow from fucking up my Country. She and the rest of her SNP cronies can all go and fuck themselves in my humble opinion.Also, AmandaRose to replace little fukkin Jimmy Crankie north of the border.
You say that but the yellow vest types did way more than the strongly worded letter that most protest elsewhere/in those countries listed usually amounts to (though it was pleasing to see the Australian builders have a bit of fun) and that seems to have amounted to not a lot.Boris is far from my favorite Western politician, but he hasn't turned his country into a dictatorial shithole like Australia, New Zealand and France are.
France's president thinks threatening the French that he'll get them to comply. Seems he doesn't know his own history.
That gets legally dubious as there are also a lot of lords and ladies/historical (and present) aristocracy with land claims via similar historical precedent (them being the surviving eldest male line of the people high up in the most violent army some 1000 years ago), and if you are going to go after assets divested further than that (leaving aside them being able to pull strings in all sorts of companies* and suppliers)....the crown lands, as well as the monarch personal belongings are national assets, so they stay with the republic and not in former monarch possession. So apart of this, everything you said makes sense (I don't agree the reasons are enough to justify a Monarchy but still are valid arguments).
Edit: Also, the tourism, if the republic keep the dancing guards and the palace standing, it will keep same way it is. France make lost of tourism money with the carcase of their monarchy, this is an example.
Edit 2: Sorry, I went way out topic, I'll remain quiet.
True, though now with government taking people's rights away if they don't comply it's in another fucked level.seems to have amounted to not a lot.
you mean the French forgotten or the British? Or both? (It is a genuine question, we don't have much cover of Europe on big media around here aside from huge, let's say, peculiarities like Viktor Orbán or Alexander Lukashenko).True, though now with government taking people's rights away if they don't comply it's in another fucked level.
It's like governments and people in general have forgotten about that Austrian painter.
Younger folk these days have a hard time having an attention span of more than 5 minutes at a time. If even that. Government is just too far up their own arses to accept the possibility of history repeating itself.True, though now with government taking people's rights away if they don't comply it's in another fucked level.

The British have already been ruined and fell from grace. They will never return. They've already been replaced.
