One of the problems of doing away with the monarchy is the question of who should replace. Funnily enough the English Monarchs ARE 'born to rule' and are brought-up and educated with that in mind.

Of course, Julia's mentioning of the subject at this particular moment is the usual politician's catchpenny slogan-mongering, in this case designed to take a little attention away from the main game - as is happening here and now.
