I fell for it, hook line and sinker!
A lot of Brits would fully agree with that headline.

Actually, 85% of Brits support the monarchy. Only the sick lefties oppose it...just like here, except we have the libertarian buffoons also.

“Only the sick lefties oppose it...just like here”

So, George Washington was a lefty, huh? They tried to make him a king and he refuse.

[SmokingJoe]

Yup.
The Queen has one of the highest approval ratings on the planet, if not the highest.
Dementia Joe would kill for such ratings.

“Actually, 85% of Brits support the monarchy. “

I am not sure about 85% but I would agree it is probably very close to that.

I have been to London a few times, and had to go to Cambridge for some important thing once.

I tried to talk to as many people as I could about stuff.

Most supported the monarchy as you say, while at the same time saying that they wished the church and the monarchy did not most of the land.

There is a lot to be said for stability in Govt, even if it is only an illusion.

Agreed. It’s commonly accepted that the tourism value of the monarchy exceeds its costs. Her kids and late former daughter in law are/were a bunch of insufferable twits, but I honor this woman’s unwavering devotion to God and her Country.

libertarian buffoons

That's redundant.
