Well I have never liked the Queen being our head of State I mean she has been here only two times since she became Queen, if she going to be head of State she should come here more often. I think we need to get rid of her and have an Aussie head of State, not some Pommy woman who watches her sons play polo all day long, lol.
As for the Commonwealth Games, never thought we wouldn't have them if we got rid of the Queen, but we can live without them can't we? Don't we waste money sending the athletes off to complete and it is the taxpayer paying it all, without this there would be extra money to spend on other things.
