I'm not a monarchist in the strictest sense, but rather that than a political cyborg... Plus, you know, there's the days of work   _________________Plain English advice on everything money, purchase and service related:

I didn't think I was and until fairly recently, I wasn't.
But we've been lucky and our current monarch IMO has been awesome. I would hate for Prince Philip to be king. I did wish that at the time of the last election that HRH dissolved Parliament so we could redesign it. Kinda like Deus Ex Machina.

No. I don't believe any one genetic line should be idolised, the same way I didn't believe in the same Nazi ideology of the superiority of one genetic trait over another.
Thought I'd get a Nazi reference in there early.
