The discussion was initiated several hundreds years ago and is still going. Approximately 80% of the population are in favour of keeping the monarchy in its current form.
She’s not in charge of that. Denmark has a parliament, and the Danish people do not want to abolish the monarchy. In fact, the Danish royals are very popular in Denmark and abroad.
They also have lobbying and political power, at least in the UK.
Also, it’s not the living monarchs that attract tourists. It’s the buildings, the places, and the history. Just look at France and Versailles. You do know what they did to their monarchy, right? It’s the place and the history, that people go for.
She had a good opportunity to abolish monarchy there…
I think that would have to be done by the Parliament.
Still a good moment to initiate that discussion.

Me when non-French Europeans ask why I don’t care about their opinions on anything
But you care about French opinions?
Yes. They know the proper role of monarchs.

Because a lot of them think they are somehow superior to others because they know who their ancestors were for the last 30 generations.
