I think we might need some sort of Head of State. The Prime Minister isn't one and the Monarch's role may be ceremonial but the actions she takes would need to be taken by someone.
Most likely scenario if we ever did get rid of the Monarchy is an elected ceremonial head of state as Ireland does.
Back to the thread generally, I don't see how this is 'nothing to do with Charles' as some have suggested. He
may have nothing to do with it after the investigation is done but it's his charity and he is connected to the honours system. There is obviously something to be looked at there.
