Roll on the Australian Republic!

IT'S TIME TO GO QUEEN ELIZABETH!

With the last of the Queen's men in Australia thankfully gone from public office forever, the prospect of an Australian Republic has suddenly come back onto the national political agenda.

Prime Minister Kevin Rudd should have another Constitutional Convention as soon as possible to cut our ties with Mother England forever.

Whatever lingering sentiment there might still be for Queen Elizabeth, the ever-looming prospect of King Charles and Queen Camilla of Australia is surely enough to put the real shudders into average Australians, guaranteeing an Australian Republic with an overwhelming majority of punters giving their thumbs-up for a constitutional change.
