There's no doubt our 'democracy' needs revision. Sticking a cross in a box once every 5 years for pre-selected candidates, who when elected ignore the people who put them there is not real democracy. I know the Queen can't vote, (but she can influence) What's the deal with the rest of the Royal family? Can they vote?

Your question started me wondering why members of the armed forces could vote when belonging to non political organisations. Members can have individual political leanings but all swear allegiance to the non political Monarch to create unity.

steved32 Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Oh my God... spare us the schmaltzy, scruffy details. Wonder whether paedo Uncle Andy has sent a pressie. When Lizzie dies, let's have a referendum for a Republic, then we can ensure our nation does not fund privilege, preference and perversion.
