You can't say lavatory without saying tory.
I dislike politicians more than I dislike the Royal Family.Chucky isn't a "committed environmentalist", he just yearns for the days when common oiks sweated in the fields without the help of modern chemical agronomics and machinery to reduce the burden of fattening the larders of their betters.
I wouldn't like Blair as President either, but I still want to be able to actually vote for someone instead of having no choice but to suffer with inbred creeps like Andrew.
I like a head of state with no political power.
Any elected HoS is inherently political and therefore divisive.
I'm pragmatic rather than ideological on this issue (on most issues in fact).
I get all the arguments about inherited power but I don't think the monarch has any real power any more. What meaningful difference has Charles made to your life since inheriting the hat of stolen gems?
New coins and stamps? Meh.
