I couldn't agree more.
The simple fact that most people here couldn't tell you what the Sovereign, or Head of State's role is (shown through very crude 'she doesn't do anything' commentary) shows a complete lack of understanding of fundamental concepts needed to construct rational arguments for removing the Queen.
By all means form an opinion for or against the Monarch, but at least do it rationally.
As a challenge, I ask any one of you Queen-haters out there to give just one well constructed argument for
keeping the queen. Prove that you have some kind of holistic view of the situation, and some kind of grasp of the basics. Or indeed, try to state some
facts about what the Queen does, and construct a decent, anti-monarchy argument from there, instead of employing empassionned (but ultimately hollow) rhetoric.
Oh sorry, I forgot, it's cool to hate the Queen.
