Can you explain to me how this is not happening now because we aren't a republic? Also can you comment on what I said in post #2 about how the queen doesn't do anything other than rubber stamp a decision made by the PM and even then it is only one decision (who becomes GG). To even suggest Australia is playing colonies sounds silly to me. How are we doing that? How does it affect our lives and How will spending millions upon millions of dollars to become a republic change things?I voted yes. It's high time that Australia stopped playing colonies and started to face up to the reality that we are an independent nation capable of creating our own destiny.
As for your comment about it means it will recognise we have our own independant history and that we have forged our own identity through struggles I was taught that at school and that was twenty years ago when there was alot more support for the monarchy!
