To support the royal family, try swallowing this.

500 million or so pounds are spent on the royal family.

15 BILLION or so pounds per year are spent on the European Union, not including its bailouts, and so forth.

Basically, the British tax payers are paying into a political system that violates British law in regards that persons cannot be detained without reason, well, in the EU, you can do that. So basically, the British are paying into a system that violates their sovereignty as a people, and you want to cut the monarchy?

It doesn't cost too much, but how would you liked having to pay extra tax so some spoiled fat hag could get fatter?

You are paying 30x more for the EU per tax payer.

50 pounds in taxes I believe go to the monarchy.

150 pounds go to the EU. (Neo-USSR)

Same as Person. I don't use monarchy costs to support my anti-monarchism or Anti-British Nationalism. You can check my essay if you don't believe me.

Also, twigs, you're sounding like a democrat. "Oh, don't cut that, it doesn't cost a lot"

If the people want them gone, fine, they can cut spending for them. But the people don't. I don't see anti-Monarchist protests anywere.

I do consider my self a populist in some respects.

But anyways, ending ties with the EU in regards to taxation and social spending (15 billion pounds) equates to more than austerity present by Parliment.

Its an opinion that does not make sense.

Besides, the monarchy is a symbol of many countries, much like, say, if we had a living Uncle Sam lineage.

History0 is Person.

Thats because people are more confine with figureheads than a de jure monarchy. Trust me twigs if the monarchs were absolutists they would be rioting in the streets.

As TR said...

"Democracy shall be the death of Monarchy"

The French had a monarchy too. They got rid of it. It didn't hurt their identity or some bullcrap like that.

Am I a monarchist? No.

I am an enlightened despotist. I feel that the people should elect the next despot when one dies.

Most of the people that revolted were just parisians rather than the sum of France and its empire.

And the reason it didn't change anything back then was because it was back during a time of monarchies and empires, so France ran an empire with its own with many kings too and fro.

If we were to eliminate the royal family now, we will of official lost that sinew to a time when European nationals actually were sovereign states that ruled the world.

Because we the cycle of history is swinging in favor of Europe and those who do not wish to see this many the Eastern European buttmads and the azn space takers are bawwing over it because they want europe to provide for them and not take their resources. They expect to be saved from every famine, when the famines are from them pooping out 20 children.

Germany has no monarchy, they are doing fine according to you.

Actually Twigs, when France was a republic after Napoleon III fell, they maintained a veyr strong and vast empire.

I am sorry twigs the Age of Europe is over. It ended in 1945 when the UK failed to be a competitor in the Cold War and the decolonization era overtook europe.

Many of the reasons I stated in Reason 1 of my essay explains why this is so.
