Rejected petition Hold a referendum on the abolition of Monarchy

We believe that the Royal Family has become increasingly unpopular in modern times. So, we think that the UK should hold a referendum to abolish the Monarchy. They are not democratically elected, and removes the meaning of true democracy.

More details

Data suggests that almost 25% of people in the UK want to abolish the Monarchy, this will keep rising. The fact that the Monarchy can interfere with our national politics, at any moment, is a damaging threat to our democracy.
