Rejected petition The British Monarchy should be abolished

More details

The government should consider debating a national referendum into the legitimacy and common-sense of having the British Monarchy in the middle of a great depression. It cost the British tax payers millions of pounds a year to foot the bill of the monarchy. Is this sustainable, sensible, reliable, dependable and wise? It needs to be debated.
