Yet Australia, New Zealand and Canada ( to name just 3 ) have all expressed a desire for trade between us.
The difference between Brussels being unelected is that they can pass EU law/regulation (call it what you will) that effect us. The Monarchy can do nothing like that, they are just a figuredhead.
Like it or not they do a very good job of representing this country to the rest of the world.
