As something of a history buff I’ve read about a fair few Kings and Queens through history. There are many of them, most mediocre, a lot of them objectively bad, however, now and again one stands out from the masses as a good one.

So, what (according to you) makes a good monarch? Feel free to point to a particular person, or event as an example :)

      This argument comes up every time. What if you get a KING Blair, Johnson or Sunak? At least a president can be voted out.

        I don’t think you really understand how monarchies work.

        FYI Charles I was voted out to all intents and purposes.

          Ok, how do I vote out the current King then? What’s that? I can’t?

          I absolutely do understand how monarchies work, so don’t patronise me - or at least not without expanding on your point so I can reply with more than "Yes I do”.
