In reality, it’s symbolism without substance. The monarchy’s charitable role is largely limited to titles, appearances and photo opportunities. Symbolic generosity doesn’t keep people fed or housed. Real commitment does.29 Dec 2025 18:26 +0000at://did:plc:szjbi3zddlybyghbjagbub67/app.bsky.feed.post/3mb5hlmbets2rhttps://bsky.app/profile/ourrepublic.scot/post/3majc6acpt22wHow easy it was to switch to media talking about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor with his real name.

It's about time this approach was the standard across our society. No more "sir" or "lord" or "prince" or "king". Everyone using their names as a society of equals.18 Nov 2025 11:59 +0000at://did:plc:szjbi3zddlybyghbjagbub67/app.bsky.feed.post/3m5vosxyq2k2ahttps://bsky.app/profile/ourrepublic.scot/post/3m4qcd2pitc2pOur Republic’s Treasurer, Tristan and Media & Comms Officer, Kiran, have co-written a piece in The National calling for a fairer, more democratic Scotland, one where no one is born to rule, and everyone is equal.

The monarchy has learned how to protect its own interests, not ours. True democracy means no inherited privilege, no secrecy, and no one above the law.30 Oct 2025 19:01 +0000at://did:plc:szjbi3zddlybyghbjagbub67/app.bsky.feed.post/3m4gnkksgx22phttps://bsky.app/profile/ourrepublic.scot/post/3m44bolmhsc2kUnelected power is dangerous. When leadership is inherited rather than earned, it puts society, justice, and democracy at risk. Power without accountability protects privilege, not people. It’s time to end unaccountable authority and build a fairer system where power serves the people.26 Oct 2025 16:02 +0000at://did:plc:szjbi3zddlybyghbjagbub67/app.bsky.feed.post/3m44bolmhsc2khttps://bsky.app/profile/ourrepublic.scot/post/3m3rnmvxbr22vThis bill seeks to give Charles the power to unilaterally revoke titles. It should not be in the hands of a Monarch who does and does not keep their titles - it should be our democracy. Better yet, we should scrap the system of royal titles entirely. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/parliament-duke-of-york-bill-commons-britons-b2849902.html22 Oct 2025 10:37 +0000at://did:plc:szjbi3zddlybyghbjagbub67/app.bsky.feed.post/3m3rnmvxbr22vhttps://bsky.app/profile/ourrepublic.scot/post/3m3nobxiakk2hOur Government could and should take action against Andrew. For too long our parliamentarians and Governments have been deferential to the crown.
