Keep the Royalists off our public areas

In my hometown, the small Swedish town of Örebro, the royalists has decided that around 1.6 million Euro of the taxpayers money is best put to use by having a party for citizen CG Bernadotte in the middle of the town. In fact on the greatest plaza. However, the republicans has been retaliating by applying for a permission to demonstrate on the day when the royalists wants to have the party to celebrate that the Count of Pontecorvo became king 200 years ago. It will be interesting to see the development of this. According to my understanding the normal procedure is to give the permission to the first one who applies for it. It will be quite a good test on the principle of equality before the law.

My personal understanding is that it would be more appropriate to give the money to the descendant of the Count of Ponticorvo if he promise to abdicate and take his family with him and move to his buddy and best pal, the Sultan of Brunei. Citizen Bernadotte is well-known for admiring the way in which the Sultanate of Brunei is ruled. He pointed out, as he visited the Sultan, that the subject loved and admired their ruler.

This would be a good investment for the Swedish citizens. Then we would have a modern constitution where we either elect our president, instead of breeding the head of state like cattle, or allow the parliament to appoint him or her. Just look at our former eastern part, they have their president and they seem content with her.

Note: The photo at the top shows CG Bernadotte and his good friend and collegue King Abdullah of Saudi Arabia, who is particularly well-known for his understanding of the rights and obligations of women. One would assume that CG Bernadotte admires his collegue, as he was against a female heir to the throne.
