Are you a Royalist ?

Given it's Diamond Jubilee year I thought it would be interesting to see how many supporters of a Monarchy are still out there so i have included a poll with 4 questions

Let the civil war commence

Re: Are you a Royalist ?

My feelings on the Royal Family are "meh!", as in I have no strong feelings either way.

I am uncomfortable with a Hereditary Monarchy, but think they do a (mostly) good job in pulling the tourists in and being "ambassadors" for the country.

So, in summary, not bothered either way.

Re: Are you a Royalist ?

YES

I think that makes it clear

I swore allegiance to Her Majesty and that still stands to this day and will continue to do so till the day i go to my grave.

Re: Are you a Royalist ?

Marty, how about a "not bothered either way" voting option, please?

Re: Are you a Royalist ?

Why do you have a third answer when yes or no will suffice?

As Marty said, that third option should be "Meh!"

Re: Are you a Royalist ?

On the whole I believe that we benefit from having a Royal Family so I guess I am a Royalist.

the third option is for those who have supported a Monarchy but think it is not relevant in todays society and should pass into history gracefully
