RT @BallotBoxScot: Elon Musk has turned Twitter into a cesspit. I'm not staying on there, and neither should you be.

'Charles could have arrived in Alloa and with a wave of his pen made the challenge of raising funds to meet the needs of local people reliant on food banks disappear. That is not a hypothetical.' // @OurRepublicScot

If our monarch truly cared about the hungry in Scotland he’d make the need for charity to support Scottish food banks obsolete, writes @OurRepublicScot ✍️

Charles could cover the entire costs of delivering that estimated cost of Trussell Trust food parcels for the entirety of Scotland for a year with just 1% of his wealth.
But he won’t, because he doesn’t truly care.
The Emperor is wearing no clothes.

“At the moment, between Starmer and Swinney [...] we’ve got two status-quo, everything-should-stay-in-its-rightful-place kind of leaders at the moment, we might end up with a system that is less likely to push the boundaries.”

It's unsurprising that officials working for the Monarchy, who see themselves as above the law, will simply make up rules to protect them.
They can't hide from public scrutiny forever
It's long past time to abolish their remaining exemptions to our laws

The leadership of both the SNP and Scottish Labour has lagged behind public opinion on the Monarchy for years.
The responsibility now lies with their membership to deliver change, as the first party to shift could reap the rewards of popular policy.

A system by which people are appointed to power for life without democratic mandate, checks, or accountability cannot be a feature of a democracy
The House of Lords, even without Hereditary Peers, is a relic of the 19th C that we should have left behind

There is now a motion to Devolve the Crown Estate for debate at Powys County Council, to be debated on December 5th.
We're talking with councillors to encourage them to support it.

The continued existence of the House of Lords in its current form is an embarrassment to all in the United Kingdom.
Removing the hereditary peers is a positive step but leaves us with a system built entirely on nepotism. We can & should be going further.

We wonder what two billionaires with contempt for the concept of democracy, accountability, and equality under law might have in common...

How many such laws and regulations have they secured exemptions for behind closed doors? We don’t know.
Lack of transparency and hypocrisy by the royal household is a running theme in their affairs.

As if what they rake in from the public purse isn't enough - Charles and his family are also taking from charities and the NHS to fund their lavish lifestyles.

This endorsement reflects a growing momentum and shared vision for a modern Scotland, free from the inherited powers and privileges of the monarchy, and one where our elected representatives swear their allegiance to the people, not the Monarch.

57% of Scots agree with us that it's time to abolish the monarchy and establish an elected head of state for Scotland.
Today our conference voted to reaffirm our position and back the @OurRepublicScot campaign.
ALT Motion passed. Support for the Our Republic campaign.

“At every opportunity it seems to be a case of Britain clinging to its past by any means necessary even if that means turning a blind eye to democracy. I find the idea that the Commonwealth has ever been about democracy pretty laughable.” - OR

The Monarchy has among the most blood-soaked histories behind its wealth and status.
It is correct that Charles is confronted with that whilst he continues to enjoy the pomp and extravagance of billionaire and Head of State status created by that history

It's unsurprising that the royals are cheapskates when it comes to the salaries of their workers.
What else would you expect of people who believe they're naturally destined, from birth, to be our Heads of State? They see themselves as above everyone.
