How Good's... the Monarchy?

from Have a Go Hosted by Dave Edwards

With Harry and Meghan in the headlines this week - and the Royal Family copping all sorts of heat - we thought it was a good time to stick the boot in by revisiting the Republic debate. In 1999, Australia had the opportunity to formally cut the apron strings with Mother England. But in one of our greatest ever cuck moves, we voted "no" in the Australian Republic referendum, and since then we've pretty much forgotten about it. Firstly, do we even want this? Secondly, if we were to take the bold leap from being a "Constitutional Monarchy" to a Republic, who would we choose as an Australian Head of State? Greg Norman? Shane Warne? Susan Kennedy from Neighbours? Surely anything is better than Prince Charles, a bloke who literally travels around the world with his own white leather toilet seat.
