  1. Ever thought about how countries, which had more trauma due to British colonialism ditched monarchy, like Ireland, South Africa and India. While the ones which kept it are mostly the ones where the locals were killed and substituted by British immigrants like in Australia and Canada, or small countries, which get more investment and trade if they keep closer relationship with the UK like many island nations

  4. Where is proof that tourists come cause of monarchy? Noone has real evidence. Also, there are probably many ways they consume a lot of taxpayer dollars spent on all those royal events and estates etc. And if those estates belonged to the public and were 100% open to tourism, they would generate more tourism money. Versailles and Peterhof generate a lot of money even though France and Russia killed the royal families long ago

  6. All that she did in her life was only to keep monarchy alive, and keep her family where it is. Nothing for the rest of Britain or Commonwealth.

  7. Recently they stopped marrying each other. So they aren't inbred anymore. Calculating inbreeding coefficient isn't that hard. But British royalty is more obnoxious than any other, because media is obsessed with them and they sometimes are happy to use it as a PR
