The idea
How can we profess to be a truly democratic and modern society when we subsidise a head of state selected on the basis of hereditary privilege?
We should be allowed to elect our head of state. Someone who actively engages with the electorate. Only an elected head of state can adequately protect our civil liberties. A hereditary ruler has no legitimacy whatsoever.
Why is it important?
The monarchy and titles of nobility are a throwback to feudal times. They represent everything that is wrong with Britain.
