The argument for replacing the monarchy kind of falls apart when you
mention a possible alternative of say President Tony Blair.



I agree, the thought of a President Bliar or Cameron is chilling, as
history shows they can be bought.

Even worse if you wind back a few years to Old Iron Knickers who had
she been president would probably have tried her damnedest to
out-supreme any past royals of any country.

But other countries have made a
great success of having only apolitical Presidents.
