I'm not one of those people that throws around the whole if you dont like this about our country then you should leave thing

But if the royal family existence is that much of a political problem for you maybe you should consider moving because it's literally the systemic foundation of our state. And there is nowhere near enough support to remove it in the near future.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

wow
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Wow what?

He's right about the royal family though. I don't really care either way but there's nothing close to enough support across the UK (England mostly) to get rid of it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Wow I should consider leaving the country because I don't agree that the royal family should be referenced in a national anthem or have any part of our modern day society, politics or state. There isn't much support for gun control in the states either..
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Comparing gun control with the royal family ffs
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Yeah, that's what I did. I really worry about some people on here.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Yeah I know and it frankly removes all validity from your poorly constructed argument.

The arguments for gun control are to save lives. Not exactly sure how getting rid of the royals and giving absolute control to Boris and co does that.

Sigh. The point was that there are many things that are the right thing to do that don't have much support to start with. I could have gone with slavery if you'd have preferred.

Removing slavery was to end human suffering. Not sure how removing the royals and passing absolute power to kants in Westminster does that.

Just don't sing if you don't like it.

Booing like this is disrespectful to the country, to the people that have fought and died to protect it.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
As stated above the national anthem has nothing to do with England and every thing to do with a make believe man saving some old biddy born into privilege!


----------------------------------------------------------------------

Why boo it though? Why yesterday and why Liverpool fans? Why didn't the City fans boo it? They like to boo tbf

----------------------------------------------------------------------
Because you are going on about it being disrespectful, who’s it disrespectful to? The country?

Scotland, Wales have their own anthems that represent their countries!

It’s us being disrespectful to the rest of the nation?

A nation of people that on a weekly basis call us a bunch of work shy, bin dipping victims who murdered our own fans and we’re meant to sing along like a bunch of sheep!!!!

That’s were it comes from and that’s where the we’re not English, we’re scouse comes from and any Liverpool fan who thinks that’s cringe can go and fack off!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Twinning football support and politics? Yikes, double cringe!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It was aimed at you, you plastic tvvvat!

The anthem is synonomous with racism, South England, tory party, right wing, brexit, England hooligans, colonial empire and the royal family eating babies to gain power.

According to Sizzle Britain is responsible for virtually everything bad in the world.

The latest YouGov poll (feel free to search for more recent) was pretty clear in the nation's support for the monarchy.

I suspect it's largely because there is no decent alternative.

Happy to oblige
On the subject I can see both sides of the argument. I’d never boo ours or anyone else’s national anthem but have no issue if folk want to
As alluded by TOOR I think it’s a poor song. You need to shex it up a bit. No chance of getting the young ones on the dance floor when the DJ plays the current version

It is actually because huge amounts of the British public are cretins

You've got a point. We should boo them.
