    I stand corrected. Would be interesting to know how many people support the royals.

    How about 85%. It's been a constant for decades, maybe a hundred years.

    BTW this is why republican movements never succeed in convincing people.



    "The royals are outdated."

    "Yup!"

    "I mean, I know they're symbols..."

    "Uh-huh."

    "... Even so, it's the symbol of inequality, inherited wealth, everything obsolete."

    "Yup!"

    "Whatcha mean, 'yup'"?

    "That's why we like them."

    "But that's not rational!"

    "Nope."

    "So?"

    'So what?"

    Don't worry, it took this old cripple 25 years to understand that modernity is a dummy.
