As of now, it is just a ceremonial position the Queen holds over some of her territory eg Jamaica, and Australia. If they become Republics tomorrow they would not be any better. It is just a thing of pride to be completely on your own as an independent Republic. In my thinking however countries under the Queen may find it easier to immigrate to the UK (just my thoughts though).
