As a committed republican I did not expect to post on this site an address by Her Majesty The Queen. However, she is our Head of State and her broadcast this evening on the COVID-19 emergency was very good. As someone who lived and served through World War 2 her words mean more than any other current politician and she delivered it with the right amount of gravatas.

An Address by Her Majesty The Queen - BBC

What would the Queen be replaced with? An elected President?. Elections every few years? How much will that cost? Would we have both a Prime Minister and a President?
