Some may argue that the monarchy provides value in tourism. UK don't need that, tourism could thrive without help from the royals so what's the point?

People always moan about money being spent on nukes, wars, royals, Hillary or Trumps candidacy, Britain wanted to leave the EU to save billions a year with Brexit...
I'd rather see Great Britain with Queen & royal family in Buckingham palace, part of the EU & with the best Medical service, the NHS, great policing, a decent army, air force & Navy, fire force & a nice place to live, removing all the squanders & smack heads, thieves & ass holes living off the government.
To remove something positive is just idiocy when there's so many negativity in the world with terrorists, islamics & Britains own takers.
Let's remember, Great Britain's still great, nothing needs to be changed there.
