HOW Our Queen may be British but she is still considered by the Australian Crown and Parliament to be 'Queen of Australia' which is her official title in this country. The fact that she lives in another country and was born in another country has no practical significance vis a vis her role in...

Only a dullard like you, with no understanding of the foundation of the political institutions that you are advocating a wholesale change of, would make such a fucking retarded comment. As i said, you have obviously not read section 2 of the Constitution. Read it. I dare you. The function of...

There is actually strong evidence that a republican government would fundamentally alter the balance of Australian political power and anyone who tells you that a republic would not be detrimental to the governing of Australia is talking out of their ass. Time for a lesson in constitutionalism...

ok you obviously have not read the constitution so why the fuck do you make such stupid uneducated comments i actually did watch your videos you continue to state stupid bullshit like that a republic is 'inevitable' without supporting it or addressing any of my points in a rational way i am...

that assertion is unfounded bullshit firstly you're a fucktard because you associate the Australian constitutional monarchy only with 'the queen' when in fact The Crown is an integral component of our constitution and our parliamentary executive. you forget about the governor-general and state...

You: 'Australia's culture has changed' ??? 'Therefore we need a republic' that does NOT follow logically i don't need to take a step down. the monarchy is the system WE ALREADY HAVE so it is the republicans who must justify change. the monarchy works fine as i have stated above. you...

non sequitur noun a conclusion or statement that does not logically follow from the previous argument or statement. well OF COURSE NOT you fucking dolt. i wasn't talking about republics, i was talking about why we should have a monarchy, something which you are thus far making no attempt...

if old lizze hangs on as long as she can, hopefully she'll outlive charles and the problem will be solved

Listen that's a non sequitur. Yes we have become more multicultural and tolerant. Yes there has been cultural change - we are no longer 'subjects of the Empire'. But prove that ANY of this, one small jot of it, is in itself a justification for a republic. In fact there are many reasons, aside...

just like we won't magically become more multicultural (which is what you said earlier)

hot shit

I know but apparently an Australian bill was refused sovereign assent in 1906, can't remember what it was called.

is this meant to be a sylvesterbr parody thread tl;dr regardless

Now THAT would cause socio-political chaos given that executive power lies in the GG under the constitution. So basically if the gvt ever did that it's the job of the ADF to align with the GG against the government But these sorts of things do not happen because everyone is aware of the...

the australian constitution's actually. Even if the gg can reserve assent for the queen, thats irrelevant anyway since convention has been for many many years never to reserve bills for the queen's assent, and EVEN if they did reserve it, the last time a monarch refused to assent to a bill was...

lol you're appealing to 'modern australian culture' to justify that claim? ffs give me a break ok those are DIFFERENT things first off. egalitarianism is not incompatible with constitutional monarchy, neither is multiculturalism. we were founded as a nation of the anglosphere and tbh we will...

what difference does it make whether its tomorrow or in 30 years

you're an idiot no they can't governor general gives royal assent unless the bill says otherwise (and they never do these days) Australia sovereignty lies in Australia under the current system so what's the problem? i voted no btw
