Simon Kelner's article concerning the Labour MP Emma Dent
Coad's comments about the Royal Family spent far too much time echoing tabloid condemnations
as oppose to seriously analysing the points she has made. What is true that according to independent
research our Royal Family costs the country over £300 million a year. This is hard to justify during times of
austerity. I doubt Mr Kelner's claims to
have republican leanings, since he has never written anything to back up this
claim. However I do take him on his
point though that if we British republicans are to successfully advance our
cause, we need to avoid giving the tabloids ammunition against us.
