AGI – Will Elizabeth II be remembered as Elizabeth the Last? With this provocation, debate has resumed over the future of the monarchy in the United Kingdom. In fact, several voices of protest have arisen since the release of the Guardian investigation, which has revealed how Queen Elizabeth has influenced governments in drafting more than a thousand laws in recent decades.

The social network continued to spread. It is no coincidence, therefore, that television series such as “The Crown” and “The Queen”, which are able to tell it all, have received significant backlash from the public.
An institution in decline
Also, a few weeks ago, Christopher Lee, a former correspondent of the BBC’s Royal Family, let slip that Prince William and Kate’s eldest son, George, was the third to inherit the throne, should he never become king. Lee argues that popularity. The British monarchy is largely due to Elizabeth herself, her longevity and her mystery air. The arrival of Prince Charles, who was little loved, could grace the coup, increasing the popularity of an institution already overshadowed, which, after all the latest revelations, was, for all intents and purposes, a true The person may struggle to get out, a true political storm.
