    Privatise the monarchy.
    Get them out of a government role.
    Maybe they could be a subscriber service ?

    This is the problem with the Scottish parliament at Holyrood, how do you get rid of wee green toads under the list system?

    As a former SGP member, I really don't know why the party cares about it or catholic schools. Both are non-issues compared to the NHS, poverty and education.

      Sorry I have to say. In the last 12 years they've poured gold over every Palace they can. Millions upon millions upon millions. We've literally been reconquered with disease, poverty, starvation and now war any day now thanks to King pedos crusade... the reason the NHS is fucked, education is fucked, everything else is fucked is because we have a king that decided that's what he wanted. They are shit because we have a king. Everything outside of voting green (at least in England anyway) was voting for the Kings party. And what did people do... proved themselves to weak pathetic people frankly.. We are catagorically a dictatorship. Your life is shit because of the monarchy. Your putting a fire out at the front door whilst king Charles pours petrol in the back door. Because as long as your flapping, nobody asks why we've got Jimmy savilles bestie, Diana's murderer and the big name on the epstein list as a fucking king. It's all orchestrated. And it won't get better until we actually do something about it.

    Well said, Patrick Harvie, this is the 21st century, not the dark ages, even though the Tories have tried their best to put the general population back into the dark ages with never-ending austerity..

      Nothing to do with the Tories, millions of Scots quite happy with the Royals and the jobs they bring as a result of the monarchy.

    Why do we have to hear from a person that very little people voted for. It amazes me, that hard working tax payers keep providing this man with a salary, expenses and wait for it, his pension. Have a look at his background and others in his party and make up your mind.
