law of unintended consequences

who would do all of the Head of State stuff that queenie/royal family does if we got rid of it?

Either some bloody insta influencer that's won a popular election, or some political appointee that's owed a favour.

Do you really want the risk of someone like Dominic f**king Raab being appointed Head of State?
