Let him be his own man

See that's my point about the Crown Estate. It's not the person who personally owns the property. Its the position of sovereign. At least that's my understanding.

So if that were abolished then the properties would no longer be owned by anyone and would be returned to the people who really own them. Us.

If all you have left to defend you position is personal insults and questioning my education, then I think the drawing room isn't for you.

Haha! Who's a jealous little Jock then? You really are pathetic, are you jealous of everyone with more money than you, or just the Royal Family?

Let's hear your opinion of Bill Gates.

I hope that Scotland becomes independent and 'drops' the idea of Royalty. As it stands then we have to accept the Status Quo. I also hope that an independent Scotland would not allow any political 'sway' to any of the various religions. People of whatever religion have a vote like the rest of us and should be content with that. Representatives should be elected in a general election. As it stands at the moment we have non elected peers and religious 'dignitaries' and 'toadies' with a vote in the House Of Lords.

I think (for no particularly good reason) that the bulk of Australians would happily lose the monarchy as their head of state.

In the 1999 referendum 65% of Australians voted to keep the monarchy in the UK.
