Re: Monarchy or Republic?

A recent poll (3 days ago)
Quote:
An ICM survey for The Guardian found that 63% of those questioned thought that the UK would be worse off if the monarchy was not in place.

Just over a quarter (26%) said they believed the country would be better off without the royals, with 11% not knowing.

Nearly seven out of 10 people (67%) think the monarchy is "relevant" to life in Britain today, while 60% agree that it makes the country more respected around the world.
And a poll two years ago
Quote:
76% of people said they would like the monarchy to continue after the present Queen, while 18% said they would prefer a Republic
New definition of "sizable majority" I hadn't come across before....
