salford1: Their interest goes beyond just the Boomers. The ones born in the 90s might claim not to care about the Monarchy on "Twittter" or "Social media" but reality says otherwise. As I said already the people that hold the real power, "The Elites" hold the Royal Family in High esteem and will continue to do so long after both of us are gone. The best those hoping for the downfall of the monarchy can do is write a few think pieces online or call for some sort of "Cancelling" on twitter but that's where it ends. The Monarchy will probably encounter a slight downturn in public approval when the Queen dies but they'll weather that storm when the time comes like they've always done. It's a Institution greater than the Queen itself reason why it is called "The Firm" by Prince Philip. |

chic2pimp: Same way the British empire and other powerful empires in the past thought their reigns would never end. History proves otherwise. 1 Like |

tot: Different scenarios. The Empire actually had and wielded real power and that is cyclical. The current monarch on other hand are simply just figure heads. It'll take a combination of unlucky events to bring down the monarchy in it's current state and that's not going to happen. 1 Like 1 Share |

chic2pimp: The point is you can not categorically state the monarchy cannot decline or be brought down. If more powerful systems came down, they are no exception. By the way, there is nothing cyclical about the British empire, it is gone and gone for good. 1 Like |

tot: The Monarchy and the government is way too intertwined in the UK so that's not happening anytime soon. Prophecies of their demise starts and ends on Social Media. Not talking about Empire, just superpowers. 1 Like |

chic2pimp: It's like claiming the [url=https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lords_Spiritual#%3A%7E%3Atext%3DThe_Lords_Spiritual_of_the%2Cby_right_of_a_peerage.%26text%3DThe_Lords_Spiritual_are_distinct%2Cin_the_House_of_Lords.?wprov=sfla1]26 bishops in the House of Lords[/url] will stop sitting there. While it's possible, and probable, given enough time, it's unlikely any time soon since its the foundation of English governance. |

budaatum: The good ol' British institutions. Exactly the reason why I said it's not happening in our lifetime. Brits are quite traditional and the younger ones tend to get more traditional the older they get. 2 Likes 1 Share |

tot: $694 millions from tourism alone, that's huge. I read 65% of those tourists are from America... As a country, not even in dreams would anyone try to end such source of money flow No demise anytime soon - family wise, they swim in huge wealth. 1 Like 1 Share |

budaatum: My point is that there is both a revenue AND a cost, the person I quoted made reference only to the revenue generated from tourism. |

It is a kingdom, not republic and not a Democracy. And a kingdom is not meant to please but survive with the genes of the original founders. 1 Like |
