Monarchy obscures the crimes of empire and wraps them in nostalgia. It exalts white supremacy and racial hierarchy. It justifies class rule. It buttresses an economic and social system that callously discards and often consigns to death those considered the lesser breeds, most of whom are people of colour.” Chris Hedges

As the Commander in Chief of the parachute regiment is soon to be crowned onto the British throne, this event will critically examine the historic and contemporary role of Monarchy and its value to the ruling class. Participants will outline why at the very least we should be rude to Royalty!
