"The Queen and the Royal family have always been our best friends and most loyal supporters." - Deb

Rot.

If by "our" you mean conservatives, the Queen and the post-WWII Royal family understandably have stayed clear of active politics. (I assume you'd like to avoid their pre-WWII politics.) In terms of political theory, the Royal's pronouncements have tended to be statist. And, the personal relationship between Queen Elizabeth and Prime Minister Thatcher reportedly was chilly at best.

If by "our" you mean the USA, you confuse friendship and loyalty with foreign policy realism.

Elizabeth has been a good Queen, but, given the current lot, there is no good reason the monarchy should survive her.

The only people in the UK that want rid of the Queen are the Socialists. The people that our proud of our country and our traditions are more than happy to have her as our Sovereign. Getting rid of the Queen and thus the Church of England as the Soveriegn and Religion of the State would pre-empt our decline in Islamification.
