Letter to The Editor - A hypothetical president, inevitably backed by big money and political chicanery, will never have the inspiring magnificence of a king or queen

To The Age        What wonderful news that the royal House of Windsor has another prince to add to its ranks! And how fortunate Australians are to be subjects of the head of this house and to see it flourishing as it is, with youth and glamour as well as glorious tradition! The institution of monarchy is strengthened by this latest addition to its family. Of course, the ALP, if elected on 18 May, will do everything possible to deprive us of our royal connection. That is one of the soundest reasons for voting against them. A hypothetical president, inevitably backed by big money and political chicanery, will never have the inspiring magnificence of a king or queen. And that is no small matter for national well-being.
