Rejected petition Hold a referendum on the abolishment of the monarchy

We believe the Royal Family is unaccountable and by both example and practice, it prevents meritocracy in the UK, and that a referendum should be held on the abolition of the monarchy. The monarch is completely undemocratic and not elected at all so the Brexit vote sets a precedence for its removal.
