I'm think that popularity of the monarchy is falling. There is still huge support for the queen but they 'younger' royals are not so well liked. Andrew & his daughters are the worst at damaging the monarchy, Edward basically for doing nothing at all.
I am not sure it will survive Charles as king. He does not understand that the monarchy has to keep out of politics and why should his meddling be kept secret? For those hoping he will not take the crown & pass it straight onto William will be disappointed. Charles believes his destiny is to be king and he would be failing in his duty if he refused it.
After the queens death I can see many countries in the commonwealth becoming republics. Jamaica is talking about it & it is only a matter of time before Australia do it to. It is their love of the Queen that has stopped it so far but they won;t has the same love for Charles.
