I have always wondered, since the early days of Charles and Diana, what relevance the British Royalty is to the life of an average Briton. And indeed, to the whole world. I still wonder why it should not be scrapped and let the members of the family make name for themselves by their own effort.
Tracking and reporting every move of an individual just because he happens to have been born into a particular family seems to me to constitute colossal wastage, especially when the fact that a large portion of the world gets glued to the reports is factored in.
