Abolition of the British monarchy Republic, the group in the UK working towards abolition of the monarchy, noted that recent polling indicated support for the monarchy had hit record lows. The Morning Star covered this: Backing for the monarchy dropped from 86 per cent in 1983, when the British Social Attitudes was first conducted, to 51 per cent by 2024. Meanwhile, 15 per cent of people now favour abolishing the monarchy, up from only 3 per cent in the first survey, and 38 per cent would prefer an elected head of state. Predictably, keeping the monarchy was strongest among supporters of the Conservative and Reform UK parties (82 per cent and 77 per cent respectively). https://cedarlounge.wordpress.com/2025/10/23/abolition-of-the-monarchy/
