Well the Queen is our Head of State.
You have to admit it, the British Royal Family are great entertainment. Reading of Charles, Camilla, Diana, Andrew, Prince Philip and the Queen. Britain's best loved soap opera.
Is it time for Britain's monarchy to go? Should Britain become a republic and have an elected president as its leader? Some people do believe that it's time for Britain to get rid of the Royals. They see them as a very expensive tradition; and they argue that it's unfair to select a country's leader by birth. They see the monarchy as a symbol of privilege over merit, of being something rather than doing something, which should be unacceptable in a democracy.
However, for many people, Britain without a monarchy is unthinkable - Britain is the monarchy, and the monarchy is Britain. Britain has had a monarchy since the Romans left, and it would be a "crime" to get rid of such a great tradition. They also argue that the monarchy is good for the country's image, and that it brings in valuable revenue from tourism - and of course now the Queen pays a lot of tax.
So, what's going to happen to the Royals? We don't know, but one thing is for certain: if the monarchy were abolished, then some newspapers would have very little to write about. Could the British really survive without any Royal gossip?...😂
