Don't bank on it. The monarchy was got rid of once by Cromwell having Charles 1st executed. As soon as Cromwell was despatched to his grave, Charles 1st's exiled son was invited back to reclaim the throne by those with vested interests and hangers on, the ancestors of those still living lives of privilege today.

Things are different now.
It's an empty ( but lucrative) title

No different at all - still surrounded by lackies and pomp. All those with `royal` connections won't be best pleased and they will fight tool and nail to preserve the status quo.

So we put a halt to the 'civil list' and encourage them to 'resign' voluntarily.

I agree with you there muddy I'd carry her too with all the media around I wouldn't trust them not to step on her. It also stops her running off and some sort of undignified scramble to get her back. She's only two and I think we all know two year olds aren't exactly to be trusted entirely not to embarrass us.

I don't believe we will need to do anything at all, the younger royals are wanting a normal up bringing for Charlotte and George for a reason, I have feeling they are preparing to step back from the title at some point anyway.

It's not a job they want and I don't blame them looking at what some people say about them

They can't have a 'normal' bringing up Julie.
Normal upbringing my backside!
A normal bringing up is what the commoners have, and as the Royals are all born with silver spoons in their mouths, they will be alright Charlotte and George!
Lots of freebe holidays and a life of Riley and all for them!

No worrying about housing or where the next penny is going to come from for them as they fly off on their next jaunt!
