Edited for you.
Royal Family abusing their power
- Thread starter urban genie

As expected, Bluemoonski’s socialist republic movement are out in force.
Word of advice chaps, I wouldn’t get your hopes up on the UK removing the monarchy, it just isn’t going to happen.
The sensible thing here is to wait for the actual details, rather than the Guardian’s take on it and then if they are guilty, try and push for them to compensate those affected, if it’s the general public, then the NHS could use a donation.

I nominate Blair to be first in the queue, followed by Wee Jimmie Fishwife, Jenrick, Cummins and Paddy Crerand.

Any chance we could sneak Michael MacIntyre into that queue?

I’m indifferent to the Royal Family, that said I can’t see them lasting once Liz pops her clogs. Charlie and William don‘t have the nous or the public affection to hold it together.
Give it to Harry and Meghan and you might extend the shelf life.
As for the story. That the Royal Family bends the system to suit themselves can’t be news to anyone. They are in a position of privilege and will use that position to benefit themselves. The British system pretty much runs on corruption (except we call it ‘cronyism’).

William is very popular, Charles less so but Harry is pretty disliked now, from being the favourite after the Queen.
William is very popular? With who? People who like watching paint dry? The man is a personality vacuum like his dad
75% positive, 15% indifferent, 10% negative.
This is from YouGov.
Being totally inoffensive and boring is exactly what we want for the monarch.
I don’t like the monarchy because they’re a bunch of Kardashians, I prefer it to a republic and believe the institution is good for the country.
I want them to be boring as sin and totally professional.

They\re not the only ones who are in a privileged position and bend the rules to suit themselves. Both Houses at Westminster are stuffed with plenty of examples.
