I never used to think of myself as a royalist but a couple of events made me realise that I am.

1.



If I had been there I would have run Mrs Obama through with a pike before I'd even thought about it.

2.

A few years ago Prince William took an RAF helicopter just to pick up his girlfriend (now wife) to try and impress her at a heavy cost to the taxpayer. The press asked the question "Is this how we want our royalty to behave?" Immediately I knew that this is exactly the sort of thing I think our royalty should do. If we're going to have a monarchy then they should be doing ridiculous things at great expense to their subects just to impress girls or generally for the lulz - that is a real traditional British King in the making and there is great historical precedent for it.
