It was a slightly sarcastic point.

I'd have more respect for her if she was disposed of after standing up for people of her country.

The CCDP is the sort of thing she should have said "screw you hippies" to:

The EU is falling to bits and was destined to from the start. The populous didn't vote it in either, despite the referrendum results. The referrendum was as unfair and biased as every election is.

The Monarch of the UK does not take an oath to defend the people of the UK per se. They only swear to govern the people.

However the monarch must swear to maintain the offical state religion, the Church of England. Would you like if the Queen, upon reading her coronation oath again, were to be strict about that? Goodbye equality law, all other religions are now banned (this used to be the case), no Catholics or Jews allowed to be MPs (this used to be the case), etc. No sane person wants that. Forget about the Queen, she has no power.

Well lets get rid of her then!
I live in a country that did just that (Ireland). :)

There are groups in the UK campaigning for a republic ( http://www.republic.org.uk/)

Good for you :) Thanks for the link!
