more britons are thinking about what the monarchy and a ceremonial had of state. actually name for the u. k. here. tech and listen to this protest her outside the british parliament and london. principal heard of her and she power i think is absolutely of orange in 2022 family school. you can't have any philosophical moral justification for one family, having political power like that. just like that, that, that's the fundamental issue. if this and building, then there's no point having them. if they have power, then they shouldn't be that t con, kind of have it both ways. i'm. they get paid enormous amounts of money, millions and millions and millions because hundreds and hundreds of minutes to run the oil, me and i just, i see why the people to this country should pay for that. all right, so that's one person's opinion. but what's yours share your questions or comments about the monarchy right here in the you tube chat and be a part of the show with me. the me. alright,

here with us to talk about the future of the monarchy in london is philip blonde, a political philosopher and director of the think tank was public. and then also with it is shola mas shoak, balmy moo. she's an activist and author of this is why i resist and paul pounds when a lawyer and activists based in london. welcome all, philip, let's begin with you. it's 2022. why do we need a monarchy? well i think the evidence is very strong, bona key secure was to vote chrissy. it prevents the slide to extreme, isn't the economist democracy in dex has a majority of of countries in its top index over the last 3040 years have been come citrix still monarchies. republics. a more unstable,

more and dangerous compact. the republic of syria with jordan. compare the republic about jerry with the kingdom of morocco and all of the criticism of monarchy, all factually incorrect. in the sense that all the academic research shows that the countries at the moment key tends to be more democratic, more began to read less printer extremism. higher degrees of social capital and social trust and essentially police out the, the extreme is in the side and help foster consensus because they create a national po. okay. what type of politics? again, holding back to me. marcella johnson. i listed to yeah. the go,

sorry. are you living in an alternate universe? it would world a well my little one wall is the monarchy on the 80, the, that the simple or tool to secure democracy or prevent extremism. you and i live in the united kingdom. far and extremism is thriving in this country. in fact, the money is very unfairly edison will remo to take up a 2nd. i actually listened to what you were saying or good, much longer that i could have been stomach. so maybe just listen to my actually learned. so they write, the monarchy symbolizes the entrenched inequalities in this country. well, class privilege to waste. so much more a and let me just point to what the protest to said earlier. if the only symbolic, what is the point of them? but we not, they're not just symbolic. they actually have power. the monarch had political power as a political head of state. any they play diplomatic wall,

they use their power to be able to secure our exemptions for themselves, like the money like queen elizabeth dead in, in securing exemptions from race. the screener shall laws, sex discrimination laws and so many other things. so what you say makes no sense whatsoever. the monarchy is so far above the very people that they are meant to serve. there is no transparency. there is no accountability when it comes to the monarchy. that is, that is the very opposite of what democracy is about to i don't, i do not understand what the heck you're talking about. hey, let me bring in someone from our community here. her name is beth and said she's a welsh act of us. and she wants to talk about not with the monetary, represents, but maybe what it doesn't represent, no realty. in terms of off the british monarchy stands. so i think we should say, well, what doesn't it stand for? and it doesn't stand for quality, it didn't, doesn't stand as a finesse. and it certainly doesn't represent

a democracy that i won't. i don't think that anybody should be born to privilege to rule over us. at the end of the day, we are the subjects of the royal family and that's not a symbol of equality. and, and for the future of way is i think, well, that's up for discussion, isn't it? do we want to have an oil family do we want to see them on a key rule over us or in the future? a paul want to bring up between the original insurance a photo of you holding a sign that says not my king. i know you just heard beth and say what the monica does not stand for what your take on that well, i really held that sign up because there was signs the police were cracking down on people, free expression and protest. i want to challenge. and actually, i really fundamentally believe that the beautiful and complex where of freedom and rights and civil liberties that we build software to centuries. is she as precious, if not more than the money needs to be retained. you have to critique the monarchy,

the more than you think it's worth going back to the navy for miles that the monarchy, if not just about the quality that represents, it also holds up and all the other forms of inequality we have enough society. so for instance, the fact that we still have hereditary is in our legislative boating purity because that is all we still have one of the most unequal forms of land ownership in the world. and most of these people can only access 8 percent of our lab. and she is 511 old lady gets to move incomplete luxury and other old ladies, stall them 3 death in their home. to me you just get the wrong basis and self employed who we want to be as a country. yeah, i totally agree with that. statement because i mean, look at the look at the ridiculousness of the situation we're in right now. the united kingdom isn't one of the worst cost of living crisis. we've seen

a recent history. okay. there are people literally cannot eat or he, i, yet, this country is going to have to spend millions to buried. the queen who is worth our personal work is about $500000000.00 as i understand it. and the worth of the royal family is, well, it's in the billions is well over 20000000000. now, why are people, why are people us that people having to pay when her own estate can pay for a funeral? we, they found, you know, even if we had to be a fraction of it, that maybe might make sense because it is sticks, you know. but for us to put the entire bill went well, we talked about exorbitant energy that prices would. inflation went up last month about 12.4 percent. it is ridiculous. hey, i want to bring in some voices from or you to my community fill up and then i'll let you respond. ok. but a lot of them are saying similar things to watch shows you're saying. so this is showing here are we're shania saying, or as someone living in the u. k,

all they do is feed our taxpayers. money was people are starving and dying. homeless kimberly they receive welfare, someone else says, so what the king charles, queen elizabeth in the future. king william due for the country that they deserve dep position. that person was about moonlight philip wants to take shot at those. yeah, no, this is, this is incredibly unreflective. and unsophisticated fairies of hysterical remarks, if you're worried about in the quality states the united states, isn't it? it's a republic. and it has the highest levels of inequality in the balance. well, if you want to look at a comparison, look at the monarchical pay across the border in canada. but historical can make indices out for you to confront only a quarter of the world states ammonia cheese,

yet they compromise. they constitute the majority of countries and democracy in fact, and accountability in back and well being faxes, and in, in the most galler tyrin index, the number one country in the world that meets those criteria no way which is but so if you want to be patient on course, that's my question actually you need about correlation. causation is, what is the actual causation here? what's your argument for how they actually make it more gala tarion? pick it because a moment does is a bone. it has to create consensus that if you look at the great killing of badges in world history, the always where mo, not moaner key passes into a republic bank of russia. think of why. why ma, germany thing called the bolsheviks compared to the saw. this was a past,

but the bolshevik what math think. you called the right above and moment to your so join any of our largest eyes in mass. what mono know they have to be doing a good idea. ology. all we have from the other presented is, is very little known, real ideological that follow reflected all how the reality out, which is the support it quote you need or how, how is this? how does the consolation have refund on the korean raise? how do you set the concentration captains, the argument, the way, the way you just this just just as you would say that every american is responsible

. but from i would say that every historical vega is responsible for well, if you're concerned, but clearly not even all the way and you see to me james the the ending of slavery for instance, the victoria. so oh, are let me just see i'm wondering how much it philip. it seems like you're looking to the past. and i wonder how much of a generation a generational thing i want to show on my computer here for just a 2nd. we have a poll from you god, that show support for the monarchy is much higher for people who are older and much less for people who are younger. and i wonder if people who are older might be looking to the past, and people who are younger are looking at their futures and wondering what role the monarchy has in it. so say, 30 years ago,

what happens is people get mole manassas, to get older and wiser and say, very brave in australia. and right. so what is the world is pulling apart? because extreme cost has been ideology. if i say, lisa, i need to see or failing and or on the bring her back stream is that because there is no big or a consent form, a common o back in a row that monex could fall a mono? no. listen for american living on political, so i don't know you are contradicting. you said yes. in fact the entire and already knows. you can't say that he is simply symbolic and then then claim that what they do is to create consensus that i have this an opening it and you know what?

i took the time to listen to your doctor. you will listen to me and let me play and any example whatsoever of supporting equality, it has not done that bytes actions. it doesn't represent that in fact, it had to represent equality that would be and some likely rapid quote for you. also i would represent exam with you might and i'm, something's gonna a examples to the examples given earlier. when we talked about the mac went to the mammal was given as an example. you then said, well, holly star configured can not be blip. don't get it, make up your mind. people, you know, every started to pretty say all drama. he is so and that they can be looked at as a symbol of greatness. and they are equally responsible when the atrocities are committed in their name. you can, will choose,

i want this. here is an example, as long as it is, somebody had to come back, and it specifically mentioned the ending of the slave trader in some of my tribe that is completely historically illiterate george williams lightly. he was on the it was william the 4th when he was the duke clark. so one of our previous kings was one of the main opponents of the abolition to slave trade in the house of lords in the long sized traits. oh he's, he's actually busy leg. i went to the bets or hundreds of thousands of people, his late j because he opposed it. was the state doing it? he personally, i did and he was on the front one, the whole move home on it was me a positive. hey guys, i want to bring in our online community here and we have some comments and oh gosh, i lost it. now we're, is, it says this isn't it, disingenuous, this is. but what i want to do is i want to talk about the car,

the empire in the colonies, and i want to hear from someone out in the colonies. and so i want to bring in byron sila boy, who is an indigenous activist from canada. let's hear is one of you. he sent us a comment for this indigenous peoples here in canada. i have a long and complicated history with the monarch. but to me, what they mean is, you know, the ongoing genocide and colonialism that that's still happening here in canada. so there are relevancy in is for she here in 2022 is antiquated and they need to examine what their role was in corners them. they needed apologize to of, to indigenous peoples all around the world for what they, they've done in the name of their crown. ok, so can, is a common well for talking about former colonies. here's

a youtube comment of prom luca cola. i am a serial leonean, which is a former british colony. i think the monarchy should be abolished with all this wealth shared among the nations. they colonized as reparation. someone wants talk about reparations. it's about to talk about it. well, just absolute. yeah. go for a weapon. it reparations is justice. it's one of the things that the monarchy has failed to do. the queen elizabeth, 2nd in her 70 years, fail to confront the colonial path and the post colonization period in which the playbook of the british empire continued to be executed all under the guise of modernization and commonwealth. but we all know that has nothing come on about the wealth of the commonwealth. so yeah, i do agree directly to upgrade you just it is absolutely required. record nation cannot happen without the apology, and that has to be a state apology. and i think that will it go ahead to state that is what the

monarchy should be doing. and it should be leading on that. people have to understand that the monarchy doesn't just, this is not just about the passes about the present. what the mother he has done, it's a conduit to symbolize systemic racism an anti blackness. so when we talk about robbery jones, when we talk about reconciliation, when we talk about apologies and how this still impacts a lived experience is a black and ethnic minorities today. this goes back to the monarchy and it also requires that the monarchy does the need for which is for them to step up to the plate. take responsibility, apologize, actual report to judge justice and to lead or reconciliation. we have a bit of sound from a maria hernandez and jamaica. i'm going to play and then i'm gonna, i'm going to pose a question for you ball. i think he's a little bit too old for the book and profession, but who am i to judge? i have no say in this matter. what i do like about charles is that he is always

been an environmental listen, i'm an environmental this and i know he always pushed for the environment. so i want to shift the conversation more forward and talk a little bit about king charles and what we could or should see from him. she mentioned that she thinks he's an environmentalist and she'd like to see him be more active on that. could or should he be more active in the politics of the nation? paul? well, i mean, i think, i think the argument from criminal cases that he called because the molecule is supposed to be a non physical interfering institution. and so even though he might personally believe in pro environmental policies that isn't going to have a wider if it's an applicant, i think it's really important to maybe to try and create some common ground between some of the voices that and put for the policy vision i do think there is a thing that the monarchy blocked him. more in depth about actually truly

what makes this country great. what makes the land great, and what we want to celebrate as a country, because we put so much store on this runs and ready to families. we actually think about things that i think more important. over the last couple weeks, i've actually realized that although i'm not a motor case, i do love the land. i love the land intensely. i love the rivers. i love trees. i love the people. i said this island and i do think that we actually by putting these people in the past, we don't actually protect things. i think the far more important, like how to even and also to celebrate what it actually in britain doesn't amazing things. not because they were bones around in person because they give them their life and their so and their intelligence to, to helping others to further humanity and to making this country great. and i would much rather celebrate those people. it's a random hereditary case. the seventy's from a prince,

the family that is younger than oak, through the i've taken care of these islands is significantly younger than you treat that live on the, exist on. as i do, you know, who are we can do better. we can be better. but actually changes at the monarchy just goes away. how would the nation i any different? i think that you will, you will see a society that will become more american in the majority of that. hi there, i dabbled for civil war and how to play. and once again, can i don't wait while you're thinking, i would say more american pezora is the most british thing i've ever heard. anyone say? exactly. i mean like you've, you've created an editorial in a company, but it's important you have better account. i'm the better account is that is that the evidence is clear,

but constitutional monex protect democracy by fostering consensus. we're in the mid to the democratic recession, democracy falling into our talk. chris sees, i'm part of that is we have a when a take, so partisan politics. well, no cool traits given and when one side, when they essentially annihilate or raise the other side, bonus prevent that moment thought vehicles, but peace and on the span of day. and if you create a republic, you do what republic to which he think 8 in the end, in math healing, which is what i was bigger and not just a british model, not as well. and so i want to bring in the lessons we hear from are you to body and say, you know, come to, you show up. okay. so this is from wonder in my,

in the real deal amana russian and caitlin oshea. one says, in the modern world, markham is irrelevant to society, monarchies are like demi gods, not answerable to the court of law. they don't pay taxes. the real deal says they should start by selling that $1000000000.00 crown, and returning to proceeds to africa and india. anom says the brits looted all the resources are great at india and to buy this in many parts just for their interest . true. caitlin oshea says it wasn't just anti blackness. it was anti anyone not british. the same beyond the pell was coined against the irish who weren't acquiescing to british rule jolla. okay. first. oh, phillip, it seems to me you're suffering from selective amnesia. there is no way on earth that monarch in any way programming or was it that you refer to it as, you know, countries descending into some kind of extra a

right. and i listen to what you are saying. i'm telling you absolutely. well, all them, one of the key does the only thing that a money key is good and i mean the british monarchy is to survive. so it is irrespective of whatever political why, why do we have a magical need comes to the model? the rate happened out with hold on hold, but the reality of a minute only democratically with conservative, whether it's a label or liberal, double go. whether it is the money to will always sit at the top. they do nothing to really change the process. i want to sit at the top. all they care about is they're so bible that the only thing they're good at. and when did they found a power them out there must. it could not make power. that is all they've been doing a note on it with

a cli, totally gone and on. yeah, no, we're going to hand the stream today philip, i want to thank you philip and paul and solo for being with us. whether you like it or not, the monarchy will continue and we'll be watching the continue here from our desert english. thank you for joining us today on the stream. we'll see you next time. ah, al jazeera well tells the story of the british italian man experiencing life in a palestinian refugee camp in beirut, coming face to face with the daily lives of its residence. some of whom have lived here for more than 70 years. has been a refugee almost all his life. it's not my normal life crucial for decades after
