Hello, I'm Nicolas, 26, I'm a Frenchman from... France. Oui !!! lol

I really like the English people, England, its history...

I do have a blog on which I write as Phil Defer about politics, society, in French but also in English. Latest : an archive (2006) of an interview Graham Smith (Republic) granted me. http://parolesdactu.canalblog.com

 Also, something about the 2012 U.S. election : http://parolesdactu.canalblog.com/archives/2011/11/30/22852544.html

 

I'd like to chat with you, and to know if someone would be interested in answering some of my questions regarding the Queen, the monarchy ?

 

Merci beaucoup !!! Amicalement

Hi, I hope you're fine.

 

Here are my questions. Could you please answer them by private message or mail : parolesdactu@yahoo.fr   , since I would like to keep them from being published before my article, and everyone to answer without having read any of the other answers.

 

1. Could you please introduce yourself in a few sentences ?

2. How do you view the British monarchy ? The family, its costs to the British people, its role in the government and the shaping of a society...

3. What are your feelings on Queen Elizabeth II ? Maybe you associate her with decisive moments for the world, the U.K. or your own life ? Is she clearly "your" queen ?

4. Imagine you're given the chance. Would you vote for or against the abolition of the monarchy, the replacement of the monarch as head of state by a president elected by either the people directly or by its representatives ?

5. If you want the monarchy to survive after Queen Elizabeth, who do you want to be the next king (Charles or William) and why ?

6. A more general question... How do you feel about today's British society ? Would you say the country's heading in the right direction ?

7. Anything you'd like to add ?
 

 

 

MERCI !!!

Hello Nicolas, and Welcome to POE, i'm sure that if you started a new thread on the forum with your questions members will pick them up a lot quicker,perhaps title it "what do members think of the monarchy or "your thoughts on the royals", something like that to get our attention, . You can always join in on the other topics too, we are a friendly lot and love a good debate, I wish you well in your quest
