Not you Valmy

You kidding me?  I am Commonwealth through and through.

You should be grateful.  Without the example of Charles I to scare all successive British monarchs into giving up all their power, it would have become a republic long ago.

I'd vote for a republic in a snap if we were renamed the Commonwealth of Great Britain and Northern Ireland...maybe with a  Lord Protector indirectly elected by the Council of State

1/4 to 1/3 of your salary is the recommended amount you should be spending on rent anyway. If you're sticking in one place then *shrug*
