Turn That Crown Upside Down
Manage episode 410342157 series 2997625
The Royal Family are experiencing their worst year in decades. Is it time we wound down the Monarchy not just for our sake but for their sake too? Or are things best left the way they are? Plus, Boomers (not all of them we’ll add) are “used to having everything its own way”, says the Economist, but times are changing. Has the time of the Millennials finally come?
• “The Monarchy doesn’t provide a service like the BBC or the NHS but I think it’s rational, because it’s been there for such a long time, for people to not want to get rid of it.” – Rafael Behr
• “Even if you just look at the makeup of Congress there really aren’t a lot of millennials present.” – Yasmeen Serhan
• “Gen X really are the absolute waster generation.” – Rafael Behr
