Belly,

Squirm as much as you like, you haven't answered the question of how a republic would benefit Australians.

You can't answer because there is obviously no benefit.

ANYBODY, how shall we benefit?

How are you going with Shorten's tax cuts for business, Belly?

Belly,
Here's the translation:
"Bullets are expensive ."
The royal wedding cost but so do republicans. According to the Brookings Institution's Bradley Patterson, the cost to taxpayers running the White House under President Obama was $1.4 billion per year. Markle and Prince Harry's wedding will reportedly cost in excess of $45.8 million, according to Bride Book's estimation.

"and bring men to their knees. Republics are keen on making them bow to their fate ".
Republic firing squads make men bend their knees. This is due to life terminating. The knee joints bend. The knee-owner appear to bow down to republican riflemen.

The knee: Anatomy, injuries, treatment, and rehabilitation

"US Justice Sonia Sotomayor argued in Arthur v. Dunn: "In addition to being near instant, death by shooting may also be comparatively painless ... And historically, the firing squad has yielded significantly fewer botched executions."
Shooting makes dead men great . Americans vote and shoot. Or just shoot.

"France aimed to let the head drop to the bottom. "
The guillotine delivers a fresh head into the base of the basket , hygienically and untouched by human hands . Royals are the head people or were until they lost it.

Ise Mise you have had your answers andin truth have me concerned are you ok?
do you read others posts
pride in country.
End forever colonial links, stop pommys complaining
Australian head of state
return England,s insult when it joined the EU
join the republican nations around the world in saying we are our own country
Stop Royal lovers telling us we must share their views

Insult ? EU? Ah the king of Belgium you mean with British coal-miners tugging on their cloth caps and doing an Islamic crawl up to the throne. Britain is now full of praise for her convicted and proud royal serfs downunder giving their pennies for the wedding collection. Here's her gratitude: Worth over A$815 billion in total two-way investment, this relationship spans decades and crosses all sectors of each economy. If you bite the hand the corgis will get you.

//ANYBODY, how shall we benefit?//

I can't see any except for avoiding the obvious pitfalls of hereditary monarchy, i.e. the Charles the Bewitched and Joffrey Baratheons. Bad hereditary monarchs can be difficult to remove from office, and the laws of succession don't take into account a person's fitness for office, just their family tree.

As I've said before, we need an Australian monarchy of our own. And rather than rely on the dodgy hereditary monarchy model which I presume was introduced by the bloody frogs after the Norman conquest, we should go back to the Anglo-Saxon model and introduce something along the lines of The Witenagemot to elect the monarch. Only to make it a bit more democratic it should be open to all eligible voters. And to minimise corruption, fraud, etc., it should of course be handled by the AEC. Oh, and we should have fixed terms for our monarchs; say 4-5 years, and then reconvene The Witenagemot to elect the next monarch.

There we go, sorted.
