This was basically the stance that Jeremy Corbyn took on the issue, when journalists thought it was a cheap gotcha - that he was a republican at heart but he wouldn't force the matter and would instead focus his efforts elsewhere. Not a fan of the man but credit where it was due for being pragmatic on this issue at least.

Probably an article like this was written in 1912 about women getting the vote and in the USA in 1855 about ending slavery.

We are probably a lot closer to the abolition of the monarchy than we think and if not in the UK, all the other countries will get rid of it.
