Yes, there are a lot of people gathering outside the hospital Nelson Mandela is in - but the difference is that he's in a critical condition and actually DID something for Africa. What has "Kate" ever done for the UK? Apart from speak in a false posh accent that makes me want to throw something?
Can you tell I'm not a Royalist?

No Karen, don't want to further entrench the same system, want a revolution to change the entire system. Firstly Members of Parliament to be 'delegates' as opposed to 'representatives' - that way they have to vote in Parliament as their constituents want not as the 'party-line' dictates. Secondly, do away with the House of Lords entirely to be replaced by another directly elected second chamber of (for want of another term) Senators. Then we do away with Mrs Windsor and her brood - to be replaced by an elected President - who would need to 'stand' for election from time-to-time (like every five years) and could be debarred from standing for more than two terms.
