But before you do get your facts right. Calling for the monarchy to be abolished is not advocating to overthrow the government. The monarchy is not government.

The Union Flag that you refer to is the national flag of this country.

All I can say is that I am glad that someone with your attitude was not PM at that time.

Fortunately we couldn’t have launched a nuke even if we wanted to. The Americans wouldn’t have allowed it.
