A Birmingham radio presenter has been sacked after he pulled the plug on Queen Elizabeth II's traditional Christmas Day speech, telling listeners it was "boring."
It is appalling that the BBC, and other broadcasting services, have opted to go with only the "big three" parties to conduct a televised leaders' debate in the run up to the 2010 General Election. T...
The title of this article will come as no surprise to Republic Blog regulars. Infrequent visitors may, however, remember me as a monarchist. I will not give a full testimony of my conversion to republicanism over the past several months, for that is contained within my Blog comments since April...

Police confiscated cameras from members of the public heading to watch royals make their way to and from the St Mary Magdalene church on the Queen's estate at Sandringham, Norfolk. Visitors were also body searched with a scanner and officers kept a close eye on crowds lining a path.
