Is it time that the UK became a Republic, with an elected head of state and the monarchy consigned to the history books? RT after voting.

You want to end up with a Trump in charge? We already have the fuck-wit PM to deal with. Leave Queen Elizabeth where she is. Ta.

Why do you assume i) that Trump or Blair wld be elected in the UK, neither are very popular. ii) that an elected HoS has to be an ex politician? We could have anyone we like as HoS - the model most Republicans like is the Irish model. And no, they don’t bring in tourists.

If our children, or grandchildren, grew up in a more egalitarian democracy, they would then have the opportunity of becoming the UK’s elected HoS. An aspirational choice. Unless you’re a person who believe that, (for example), the Cambridges’ children are superior to your own?

Today, children have the chance of becoming PM but only if they've been to Eton etc. Do you honestly think that an average working class child will become HoS? Money and position will always win, so I'm sorry I can't support your arguement.

Yes, I do believe that any determined, hard working person could become an elected HoS in UK. They don’t need to come from a politcal background. Curious as to whether you believe that the Cambridges’ kids are superior to your kids or grandkids? (Last bit of my previous tweet).

I do too. Plenty of hardworking people in this country who would make excellent HoS. We just don’t have the political class to choose from, could be artists, scientists, doctors,teachers any occupation you care to mention. Wonder how many wld like David Attenborough as HoS ?

This is true. Can you name any scientist, teachers or doctors who have become PM ? I honestly don't disagree with your thoughts, I just don't think in today's climate of power and greed that this would happen.
