The royals aren't good for tourism. We need to #AbolishTheMonarchy .

Our Republic is having our AGM next month. Our next Committee will be elected by our membership.

If you're scunnered with party politics and are looking for something else to make a difference - give it a try. Plenty of roles to get stuck into:

Allan Armstrong was a founding member of the Radical Independence Campaign in 2012 and the long-time secretary of Edinburgh RIC. He rarely missed a meeting or a demonstration. He deserved to see a Scottish republic.

Allan was a key part of fostering cooperation between the republican groups of Scotland - his clear and dedicated passion for republicanism was clear to everyone, and the positivity and enthusiasm he brought was inspiring.

Thoughts with everyone who loved him today.

'Our head of state is handing out trinkets and medals to his own family in an act of breathtaking nepotism'.

The fact he’s been in this post for fifty years and is standing down aged 88 tells you just how pointless these royal honorary titles are.

We will be marking Republic Day in Edinburgh on the 5th May alongside Republic in a cross-UK push to promote the republican movement.

Join us for an afternoon of campaigning and a social event in the evening.

Charles gave his brother a birthday gift... the highest honour in Scotland.

They have demeaned the entire system and made a mockery of the concept of being honoured in Scotland.

We deserve better than this.

There is no such thing as a working royal.

This is the list of what William's done since the start of the year. 13 'engagements' over 12 weeks, one which is a private meeting and one which is a night out at the BAFTAs. For this we pay him more than £25m a year. #AbolishTheMonarchy

Prince Andrew back at an official engagement, rather than visiting a police station. The Greek family who invited him obviously have no qualms about inviting a man facing such serious accusations. And for the record, they haven't been a royal family since 1973.

Why is the monarchy exempt from Freedom of Information Laws? What have they got to hide? #AbolishTheMonarchy

I spoke to Graham Smith 🇺🇦 🏳️‍🌈 about Republic's campaign to get the royal family included in FOI laws, and their wills and archives published.
Smith believes ending secrecy is the key to getting consistent majority support for a republic.

The BBC News (UK) has lost the plot. There was a single announcement. It does not need live updates. We don't need endless stories about it and there are clearly more important things going on in the world.

'With cash for honours too ordinary for comment, no wonder Pullinger warns of the “significantly downward” trend of public confidence in political finance.

Liz Truss was allowed to appoint a peer for every economy-crashing 1.5 days she spent in No 10.'
