    Ah so the first act of a republican britain will be an act of tyranny? We may as well nationalize every piece of property in the nation that makes a profit, seeing as private ownership is apparantly something that is to be confiscated whenever the government desires more money.

    It is not really tyranny, since it is reclaiming what the Tax-payers paid for anyway. There is a massive difference between that situation and any other within the country. Even then, I wouldn't completely strip them of anything and just cast them on the streets. I would give them fair compensation and only claim what belongs to the state is for the state. Any pet projects or private use houses they can keep, they also have their various branding and ips. So they will live happy lives as rich millionaires still, especially with their influence and networking.

    "We may as well nationalize every piece of property in the nation that makes a profit, seeing as private ownership is apparantly something that is to be confiscated whenever the government desires more money." Well, until now the UK "nationalized" when private sector by greed bankrupted the entire economy and re-privatised when taxpayers have paid the bills. It might be a nice move to try to reverse the trend.
