Liberal Democrats have urged cancelling the King’s state visit to Trump’s USA: as head of our armed services Charles CANNOT be associated with such ignorant insults to British troops!

I am hoping Charles himself will see this - or that the younger generation will and will advise him accordingly. There is currently a small majority infavour of retaining teh Crown in Canada. But if the King is seen to be acting against Canada's interests by visiting Trump then I can see that changing rapidly. And if Canada leads the way I think Australia will rapidly follow.

If Starmer pushes the King to continue with his State visit to the US then he will be responsible for doing huge damage to the monarchy and to Britain.

Eh? If it wasn't for the King Trump would already have declared himself head of state of Canada. If it wasn't for the British in the War of 1812 Canada would now be part of the REPUBLIC of the USA.

In any case both Carney and Poilievre are monarchists and welcomed the King on his opening of the Canadian parliament last year. Only the irrelevant NDP and BQ back a Republic.

In Australia Albanese has had to cancel a Republic referendum as Trump demonstrates the type of head of state republics produce and Aussies are back for constitutional monarchy in polls
