A new poll shows that 80 % of Britons want to remain subjects of the Queen, with just 13 % in favour of living in a republic, the lowest proportion for at least 20 years. More than 1,000 British adults polled last weekend were asked: “Would you favour Britain becoming a republic or remaining a monarchy?” Support for the monarchy is highest among the over-55s, at 88 %, but even in the 18-24 age group 73 % favour the current system, with just 17 per cent wanting a republic and 10 % undecided. Conservative supporters are most likely to be monarchists – 96% prefer Britain to have a monarch rather than become a republic compared to three quarters (74%) of Labour supporters and 84% of Liberal Democrats.

A spokesman of Ipsos MORI said: “Since the Royal wedding the publicity the Royal family has received has been phenomenal, particularly for the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge”.

The Poll entitled “Who in your view is the most popular south-east European monarch?” has came to a close on 5 September 2009. It ran for one month and 107 of you, my blog readers, from all over the world, kindly spared time and voted one of its options. This poll being so open to a global audience through the medium of the Internet, reflects also in great measure a global opinion about the popularity of the south-east European monarchs.

The result of 50% indicates that his popularity is equal with all the other three monarchs together in the region. Continue reading →
