Do we need the Monarchy and a fairer Political system

So with the way the world is going do we still need a Monarchy

The simple reason really is to be a full and true democracy we should be able to elect a Head of State not for it to be a Birth right

Yes I know they bring in a lot of business but that would still happen with an elected Head of State

With all the scandals and recently the amount of money the Government has given the Royal family, then for the KIng to be exempt to paying inheritance tax when everyone else has to pay is way out of date and then to top it off the Coronation with a man and his mistress who aren't paying for it the state is

More so with the state the UK is in with so many strikes, low wages, more food banks than Macd outlets

The voting system of first past the post doesn't work the fairer system would be proportional representation as there are far too many "safe seats" on all Parties and that needs to change

We should also have a say who is elected into the House of Lords and not all these mates of who ever was the last PM

Then MPs should also then only have the one job, one wage without a second home, Expenses, free bars and restaurants

If an MP then breaks the Ministerial code then they should have to step down and have a by election
