Your View: Republicans and the Queen Letter


My own heart sank when Bob Mountfort began "at heart I am a republican -  but".  If one is truly at heart a republican there is simply no "but", since you are either fully behind the cause or not.  Anything else is just patronising and demeaning to republican campaigners.  He believes the Queen has done well at her job and thus should be respected.  Thanks to the lobbying for her considerable private interests via the Queen and Prince's Consent Law, I do not see much to respect her for.  This lobbying by stealth shows she clearly does not respect me, so why should I respect her?
