    From the brilliant Netflix series: The Crown
    Cute, like seven year old, princess Elizabeth was asked by her Eton professor and personal tutor about the monarchy role in government. Was it the efficient or the dignified.
    Bright small child correctly answered: dignified.
    What a ten out of ten wonderful monarch that Britain has had the last 70ish years.
    We're all human. She has served so well!

  • @007vauxhall

    You also mention a President IS elected, so is our Goverment, we still have huge costs keeping them, they pay themselves millions, plus a lot we don't know about probably, so that is obvious Electing would not work. I am proud of the fact we have a Monarchy, because it's British, and there isn't much left of British-ness these days, it's either been privatised or shut down. We would be finished without the Royal Family, like it or not.

  • @Bouncybon
    @Bouncybon 12 лет назад +2

    Australians have some work to do - deciding what system they want. It's well-known that the Queen accepts that you guys may not want your association with the Crown much longer.
    But you've got to start thinking it through! We love the Queen very much - but that's because we're Poms and grew up with her. She's a nice woman - and she can have as many palaces, castles and paintings as she likes, as far as I'm concerned. People are obsessed with fairness and equality, What matters is justice.

    Not all Americans are stupid. I love the British Monarchy and I hope it continues for the rest of my life and beyond. I might live in America, but the monarchy has my love, my support, and my loyalty. I hope the British people will keep supporting the Monarchy even after something happens to Queen. The USA can't survive without their mother country.

    Well, your entitled to your opinion, it does'nt mean everyone thinks the same way, It is a good thing the Queen can disolve Goverments and Prime Ministers, otherwise dictatorship could take place, then we would have only one power..The dictator, but as it stands if needed, the Queen can get rid of the lot of them,if she so wished or the people.

    @007vauxhall 11 лет назад +4

    You are free to leave this country anytime you like, it's people like you, who would if given the chance, split this country up. What do you hate so much about the Monarchy, and if we got rid of it...What then? A President? Who will live in the Palace and cost far more to keep. You have to have a head of State. Also are you born, work and live in the U.K?

  • @007vauxhall
    @007vauxhall 11 лет назад +2

    Scotland will have a vote on "leaving" the U.K. or not, people on the streets have been asked...and so far...the majority want to stay together..that result is with no influence from the BBC or any other high personality of this country. Anyway, I think it's fair to say..you have your view, and I have mine.

  • @dontbeamuppet
    @dontbeamuppet 12 лет назад

    It was a widespread belief at the last coronation (30% apparently). The european monarchies are basically 3 scandinavian countries plus UK, Spain, Netherlands and Belgium. The Population of europe is 740 million with 157 million under monarchies. Germany, France, Italy, Finland, Austria, Switzerland, Iceland and Ireland do quite well in terms of stability, democracy and wellbeing. I suspect the freed east european states. will also do quite well in the future.

    The monarchy will never be voted out of the UK because the UK would never be able to recognize themselves with it out. They are so a part of the national identity, so a part of what makes the UK the UK, that it would be like severing a limb. For as many people who claim that they don't want it there are even more who do.

  • @Cyberlucy
    @Cyberlucy 11 лет назад +1

    You don't pay your taxes to "these wealthy aristocrats" you pay it to the Government of the UK. What goes to them of your taxes is voted and agreed upon by the officials you elect. Most of what goes to any of their up keep is to restore and maintain houses that are part of your country's history.

    (contd').If the government is so confident about what the people want then there's no harm in allowing us to say publically and officially what we do want.The fact that a recent media poll suggested 52% of the population wish to keep monarchy implies that it's not a 'done deal'.Let US speak once and for all.

  • @dontbeamuppet
    @dontbeamuppet 12 лет назад

    You said "it is far too much of a risk to place total power in the hands of any one person.". If we abolished the monarchy we'd still have a parliamentary system with a prime minister. A prime minister can be ousted by parliament (or their own party) at any time. We'd have something like the Irish system. I think continually quoting extreme examples highlights the threadbare case you put.

  • @dontbeamuppet
    @dontbeamuppet 12 лет назад

    The BBC has the same story so check it out there. The NDP currently has zero seats in the Bundestag under a proportional representation system. That presumably means a smaller share of the vote than 13.4%. The French parliamentary elections have just been held and the far right won 2 out of 577 seats with Marie le Pen (who got a significant protest vote in the presidential election) losing her seat.

    Sure - Prince Charles is the heir to the throne, so yeah. The monarchy is a much stronger institution than many people expect it to be. Stronger because people in England are comfortable with it. That counts for a lot because it offers us stability.

  • @Bouncybon

    Why do you want to change something that works? The Queen is a great woman because she has brought an ancient institution into the modern era. She has created a brand. We'll find out after she has gone whether the monarchy is able to continue. There's no need for a referendum about something that is serving the nation better than anyone could ever have imagined.

    It's well-known that the cost of the Monarchy to the British state is peanuts. The left never stops banging on about EQUALITY which is a fantasy anyway. If the Queen is going to represent my country then I want her to do it in style - with as many new hats as it takes. Envy of other people's wealth and status has never been one of my hangups. Every day I drive to work past the mansions of the seriously rich. My own place is nothing like them. But the inequality doesn't make me grind my teeth.

    My point is that the monarchy is not an issue in British national life. We have scores of serious problems as a nation - but this isn't one of them! So, no referendum is called for. In any case I would not vote on principle. I am a subject of the Queen so it would be tantamount to treason to even acknowledge the legitimacy of a referendum.

    'Feeble minded' was a bit strong. I must have had a couple of glasses of wine. I know and like many people who are monarchists. I was just trying to put in a bit of balance. A system of hereditary privilege grates with me and with a lot of other people. There is another view on monarchy held by a significant minority and it rarely gets heard. I certainly hope it's not like this when the queen dies. youtube#com/watch?v=pSWN6Qj98Iw

    You totally ignored the Daily Mail story. What do you think of it? Your implied suggestion that the democratic republics in Europe (the vast majority of countries) are a hairsbreadth from despotism is simply stupid. "If you don't like a monarchy, why not move to a republic" Because I like it where I live and it's my democratic right to make my view known about monarchy or anything else. What do you think of todays Daily Mail story.

  • @dontbeamuppet
    @dontbeamuppet 12 лет назад

    " A monarch represents the soul of an entire nation". That's your view. I think once we get above 40% for abolition their position is no longer tenable. You dig back in history for examples - Europe was at war for centuries under monarchies.

It's not like it's treasonable or something. One of my favourite people is a staunch royalist (I'm not making this up) has an MBE and has met the Queen on a number of occasions. We get on just fine. Neither of us are too bothered that we hold opposite views. Real life is different from the internet.

The queen is an aging monarch, born into a life of unbelievable privilege, with whom I have nothing in common. The soldiers who die and get horribly injured are working class lads, mainly from an underprivileged background, with whom I have a lot in common. See watch?v=ctOHo4RzZEc.

    It's a class thing because she's not of royal blood. It's bending the knee to people who are very, very ordinary but have the right parents. You seem to find fault with every democratic system - 50.8% of the vote is a win in a properly conducted election. Opinion poles are no substitute for a proper debate, equal time to both sides then a referendum. But we should wait till Charles is in the job.
