young people are more monarchist than the middle aged.

This is one of the most depressing things I've heard in a while...

Anyway. One thing I've always found strange. Why is it that on the whole and in practice British people are better Republicans than the French, even though we've not had a Republic for centuries and they've not had a monarch since the 1870s?

What do you mean by better Republicans?

Well, France has a head of state-and-government who lives in a palace, who doles out state honours, and who plays a role in state ceremonies of much pomp. Holders of the office frequently engage in vanity projects and personal memorialisation. Just saying.

Oh, right. You definitely have a point here.
