Am I alone in wondering why didn't the Brits send these inbred twits to the guillotine?

First, Princess Michael is a member of the British Royal Family by marriage (most of the bad one are, especially Diana, Princess of Wales; but then so too some of the best ones, Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, R.I.P.) so that is utterly irrelevant.

Secondly because we tried getting rid of the monarchy once before, the result was a military dictatorship under Oliver Cromwell where people were arrested for celebrating Christmas. In 1660 the King came back, and there was massive rejoicing (I will be attending a Mass on Saturday in celebration of the anniversary). If we did get rid of the monarchy, whilst we may not get a dictatorship again, we would have a politician as our head of state, and I can think of fewer things worse for a country. We have been a monarchy for over a thousand years, and I cannot think of a single republic which has lasted that long. It's a simple fact, monarchy is the best form of government ever.
