I think the Queen does her job tremendously well, but once she passes I really believe it is time to dismantle the Royal family.
Even hardened Royalists will be cringing at the thought of King Charles.
I am neither heretic nor rebel, just a man that wants a system of reason.
You might be right, but is there evidence of this in other former Monarch countries? I think the fact the Royal Family are current and still frequent/live in certain buildings is a big part of the tourism. If it was just dwellings where Royals used to live them it would be no different to other countries with former Monarchies.
