BBC: New Zealand to ditch the monarchy

Helen Clark does a John Manley: Shamelessly exploit the monarchy's visit to promote your own political agenda. This, in a nutshell, demonstrates the difference between Monarch and politician - one exemplifies class, and the other is totally without it.

One was born with manners, the other has the manners of a goat.


Note: Helen Clark is the current prime minister of New Zealand. John Manley was the deputy prime minister of Canada who openly mused about Canada becoming a republic during the Queen's Golden Jubilee visit to Canada in 2002.
