(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); I've never seen the point of the British monarchy in the modern day. I don't believe that someone should be born into power, inherit acres of land and huge stately homes, be given millions of pounds each year by taxpayers purely by accident of birth.

What do the monarchy and other members of the royal family actually do apart from opening things, reading and writing letters, shaking people's hands and spending taxpayer's money on fancy trips all over the world? And in the case of prince Harry and William; spending lots of money, wasting army resources and causing a lot of trouble.

I realise that a majority of the British population are very patriotic and so understandably the queen will be very popular and I don't have a problem with the fact that the royal family are effectively Germans (although it does odd that a lot of racist people within the UK have no problem with the fact that the Queen is effectively German). But the monarchy is only symbolic and has no actual power or point, I do not believe that people should be born into a position where they are "better than everyone else" and inherit power, all politicians have to work from the bottom to get where they are, do you think any of the royal family have ever lifted a finger to get where they are? I frankly think the royal family are just wasting taxpayers money and that a majority of the British general public are sheep .

So, to queen or not to queen? That is the question.

Let here family stay in royalty because they made what you have now But who knows

Well the Queen is more of a tradition and it's a little something which makes our country different, so for history's sake, I think she should stay.
