How do you feel about the RF and monarchy?

[MarshaBradyo]

Has it changed, do you support more or less

I had a thought that the Queen’s passing might lessen it for me but opposite has happened. I appreciate the historical significance and process

Also if you’re part of Commonwealth (I’m Aus too so am interested) what’s the general vibe about monarchy v republic

I too love Wilfred Owen's war poetry. Especially "Strange Meeting". Can make me cry if I'm in that sort of mood...

But in modern times it is governments (or more often dictators) who declare war. Not monarchs.

The above was to vera99

That's why the establishment prefer Rupert Brooke's The Soldier.

And yet DD's GCSE English texts include Wilfred Owen, and not Rupert Brooke.
