New poll finds 45% of people in Scotland want an elected head of state compared to 34% who want to keep the monarchy

Exclude don’t knows and 57% support an elected head of state versus 43% who want to keep the monarchy

This is the first poll for any country in the UK to show this level of opposition to the monarchy

Why do the Windsors keep sending out press releases to announce "new photos" of their brats?
A new photo of Charlotte just "dropped". It's all over the flagshagging royalist media if you want to read about it.

King Charles gives himself a whopping pay rise from £86.3mn last year and to £124.8mn in 2025-26
The Crown Estate, which controls the monarchy’s legacy portfolio of assets, is set to earn more than £8bn up to 2031 from a boom in revenues from offshore wind projects. This is because since 1964 the estate owns the seabed up to 12 nautical miles from Britain’s coast. This is more money being stolen from the Scottish people!

Our King wears a gigantic gold hat, rides around in a golden carriage while his people go hungry and carries suitcases of cash for Saudi Royals, so maybe all Monarchs are ridiculous, yeah?

The same assurances are given in Scotland 🤬 In England I assume Chuck just has a word with the lackey in chief during his weekly meeting.

Requirements to put in a job description to discourage or filter out autistic people:

  • Comfortable with ambiguity
  • Strong people skills
  • Good culture fit
  • Multitasking
  • A fast-paced dynamic environment
  • Bachelor's degree or better

I see these things and think you don't want my >30 years of programming and machine learning experience, or my problem-solving skills and comprehensive knowledge that had people mistaking me for one of the team's PhDs, or my solutions that have proven patent-worthy. Your loss.

I am curious if these "darker connotations" are something you personally agree are dark?

I live under the Canadian Crown, same form of constitutional monarchy as UK (same underlying institution, even if separate in other ways).

I believe in

I only consider myself "left wing" in the French Revolution sense, and not in the Marx vs Smith sense as I don't adhere to European/Christian economic theories.
