Britain’s <strong>Monarchy</strong>: More Popular Than Ever<br />
Queen Elizabeth II is Britain’s longest-reigning monarch, and today marks her 90th birthday.<br />
Many observers predicted that Britain’s monarchy would eventually fall into decline, but polls have<br />
proved that it is actually flourishing. Ipsos Mori recently found that 76 per cent of Britons think<br />
their country should remain a monarchy, while 17 per cent think it should become a republic with<br />
an elected president. A large majority of people in the UK also believe that the monarchy has an<br />
important role to play in the country’s future.<br />
