Who says the monarchy is undemocratic, it exists and will continue to exist only as long as it recieves a majority of support from the people.

This country could get rid of the monarchy tommorow if it wanted.

Equally it does not whield any decision making power over us.

That's like saying we could get out of the EU.

If we wanted to.

I say leave them as an ornament, but I don't agree with them getting any more taxpayers money.

I've been pro Monarchy since the day I first watched a "Telly" which was the day of our Queens Coronation in 1953. If UKIP go anti Monarchy, then I will be saying goodbye UKIP!

Could we not leave the EU if the majority wished it? How else do you think we are going to get out.
