Yes I did live in a republic, which is run by a small amphibian for a few years. I have also lived in a number of other places, both republics and monarchies, for the major part of my adult life - but I never gave up my citizenship of England.

Re: Queen to visit Accrington in May.
Thought I might elevate this thread as it's getting closer.

Does anybody know how much this is costing and who is paying for it all ? I hope the expense I've heard about or seen so far isn't coming out the council tax we all have to burden
