Chuck the Rex. An Adventure 65 Million People In The Making

Chuck is a fifteen foot fully mobile Tyrannosaurus rex. He represents the monarchy as a dinosaur, a relic of a bygone age and a fossil that belongs in the museum.

Chuck the Rex will be turning up at events, protests and festivals. Keep an eye out for where he'll be and follow Chuck on Twitter for all the latest updates.

Chuck out and about in the wild

Unlike Charles, Chuck knows he's out of place and out of time. He wants to get out and about and have a roaring time highlighting the need for a modern, democratic alternative to the monarchy.

And now there's a limited range of Chuck merchandise, including t-shirts, a mug and a poster!

Chuck was created in 2024 by the People's Prop Department. He was first seen out in the wild on Trafalgar Square for Republic Day 2024, at Reading Pride and, in March 2025, at the Commonwealth Day protest outside Westminster Abbey.

Chuck proved a hit at Reading Pride and Westminster Abbey

You can catch up with Chuck at Republic Day 2025 - again on Trafalgar Square - and at other events and protests to be announced.

Thank you for visiting the website. Here's the plan.

Public opinion has shifted dramatically over recent years, with a third now wanting the monarchy gone. Fewer than 20% are excited by the royals, while most people are on the fence and open to persuasion.

Republic has been growing louder and stronger since the coronation.

Now is the time to keep building, campaigning and persuading, and you're part of that plan.

By becoming a member for as little as £4 a month you can be part of that growing movement for change.

Here's the plan.

Our strategy is simple enough - but it's going to take a lot of hard work. Republic is ready for the challenge, you can do your bit by joining today.

Republic's focus is on building the movement by drawing in the support of those who already agree, while also campaigning to persuade the next 20% to support a democratic alternative to the monarchy.

As the polls shift further in our favour - and they will - our attention will turn to putting pressure on politicians to give us a referendum on the issue. It's a referendum we know we can win when the time is right.

By becoming a member of Republic you will help the campaign grow, to ensure we can shift those polls.

The politicians don't even have to agree with a republic - they just need to know that a referendum is necessary because popular support for the monarchy has vanished.

Republic's strategy is to drive public opinion and use that shift in support to pressure politicians. This has to be an issue led by ordinary voters, and the MPs will follow.

Your membership makes all the difference.

To build the movement and persuade the next 20% we need to keep doing two things: Make a lot of noise and engage in serious debate. We make noise to attract attention to the issue, with protests, media work, digital content and much more. And we use the media, social media, video and events to engage with the public in a serious debate about the monarchy and the democratic alternative.

That's it! We know from experience that most people are open to persuasion. We need to keep making that noise and engaging in debate to see the polls shift.

And that's where you come in.

Join today from as little as £4 a month.

Republic isn't bankrolled by billionaires. The campaign is funded by ordinary people around the country, people who want to see the an end to the monarchy. People like you!
