"When Charles III toured Wales in 2022, it wasn’t just the waving flags or the military salutes that struck me – it was the quiet compliance of it all.

The sense that this is just how things are. That the man anointed in Westminster, wearing a crown of stolen jewels, is somehow our head of state too.

But is he? And more importantly – should he be?"

The list of people who refuse royal honours and have said thanks but no thanks carries much more gravitas than those happy to get on their knees. Keep your royalist baubles. Robert Smith of the Cure says this perfectly.

@TheComfortableSpotPodcast As a Brit I think this is what we could have as a republic, a ceremonial figure but also a real human being from the real world....and their dog.

Instead we've got some weird old king who looks at us all like objects, and when he dies soon the next one will be just the same.

Weird old colonial relics are not going to be speaking out against colonial crimes in Gaza.

“People are beginning to wake up. They are beginning to realise that the royal family are not a higher form of humanity – they’re just ordinary, fallible people like you and I, therefore they have no more right than anybody else to our head of state.”
