Ball player wants to grow up without a monarchy

August 13, 2015

According to the Crown Chronicles:

Former rugby player-turned-republican Peter FitzSimons has said that Australians want ‘to be grown ups’ – and do away with The Queen as their Head of State.

…polls show that in 2014, support for a republic was at its lowest for two decades, at around 40%.

…support of The Queen and Royal Family…appears to have gone from strength to strength in recent years, helped by two successful tours by members of the Royal Family: The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge at Easter last year, and Prince Harry earlier this year.
