Republic is committed to the abolition of the monarchy. As part of that continuing campaign we are challenging the royals' control of the Duchies of Lancaster and Cornwall, and why we allow them to take the profits as private income.
Last year the Duchy of Cornwall paid William £23m. The Duchy of Lancaster paid Charles £27m. That's money that should be spent on local communities and public services. It's time to ditch the duchies.

Become part of a growing movement. Support for the monarchy has fallen sharply, thousands of people have been joining Republic and the campaign continues to get stronger.
It’s time to abolish the monarchy, and together we will.

They say Britain should be proud to have the mother of parliaments, a shining beacon of democracy and an example to other nations. But there's an elephant in the room.

"I read this book with an open mind and the author’s argument to do as the title suggests is very strong. I’d like to see if someone could write an equally comprehensive case for keeping the monarchy, I doubt it’s possible." (Amazon review).
