Thanks for the reply.
Now perhaps you would like to explain why it is vital, since this most certainly did not.

Sorry if you have to have it spelled-out. I thought it was obvious.
Removing the role of the Monarch will mean the wholsale scrapping of the constitution as it has evolved (and remained stable) in the present form for centuries. It would mean the replacement of the present constitution which has served this country well for all those centuries with another. Whether that replacement would be "better" or not is open to debate and is non-sequitur anyway, as there are so many alternatives possible - non of which has been proven to be better than our monarchic, parliamentary representative democracy.
One alternative which I am certain some in this country are working towards would be to accept the full constitutional arrangements of the European Union. I think this is totally unacceptable as the EU system is anti-democratic: a soviet style tyranny in fact, which would lead to civil unrest and eventual bloodshed.
Comprende now?
DED.
