"Not my King" idiots
 
Sorry but the people are idiots.

He is your King and will remain you King while you live in this country or are a member of a Commonwealth country.

If you emigrate to another non commonwealth country and become a citizen and renounce the original only then can you say "Not my King"

What if you steal that country from a people who have lived there for 65,000 years

Only a matter of time. Unfortunately for the monarchy, Australia is a democracy.
Might only be a matter of time here too.

You can say that about most 1st world countries.

Be worth it to topple the class system they sit on top off.

That said Lidia Thorpe seems like a bit of a cretinous, gobby extremist who is unfit for purpose

You may well be right.

Given the current lot are a family of scrounging immigrants, living in posh "hotels" at the tax payers expense, I'm surprised that the Reform & Tories aren't after them :)

To imagine that the social networks of the braying toffs who inhabit places like the Henley Regatta and Ascot will somehow topple in the absence of the royal family is … naive.

She has been condemned by a good few Aboriginal leaders as well.

Leaving aside the semantics of whether Charles is king of the people or the country, Australia has, inconveniently for her, held a referendum on this issue well within the last generation. The country remains, by democratic choice, a constitutional monarchy. Charles is King of Australia and that’s all there is to it.

Slightly stacked against the aboriginal population by a ratio of 26-1.

There's nothing naive about wanting people to get ahead on merit rather than because of what school they went to, the problem isn't with yachting and horse racing
