Sadly, the monarchy, along with all it's hangers-on (without whom we probably wouldn't be having this discussion), won't be going away any time soon. However, if Wingnut gets a couple of decades under his belt he'll almost certainly bring the whole thing into serious disrepute. At least the Queen knows she's a bit thick and tends to keep her gob shut. The cheeky Greek hubby of hers, less so, but they do keep him well sidelined. Charlie Boy hasn't a bloody clue, and he sticks his head above the parapet far too often for royal comfort. He'll do a far better job of turning the royals into a laughing stock than any of us sour-faced republicans ever could. It could get quite entertaining, but it still won't be entertainment worth thirty-odd million a year.
