Why all the fuss about the Queen's Jubilee?
Do we really need to celebrate a dysfunctional, upper-class family holding on to its power and privileges (well past its sell-by date) while the rest of the world moves to try to embrace democracy?
Getting rid of the monarchy is a sign of national growing-up and a path we'd do well to follow.
The Queen isn't short of a penny - if she wants a royal farrago, she can pay for it herself.
