The royals and the edifice of establishment of which they culturally stand at the top is a carbuncle on british society.
It is a fundamental negative with its eternal looking to the past, class worship, appearances above achievements mores, feudal norms and symbiotic relationship to the the other pillars of the establishment including the army, house of lords, temple / law courts london, city of london, church etc retard normal brits and the country at large from proactively looking and acting for the future.
everything in the uk is subpar but unless you live in a country with actual high living standards you just don't know it. that's everything. services, manufactured goods, technology, housing, roads. and the rentier classes increasingly squeeze the people at the bottom to maintain their wealth. cheap materials everywhere and bad attitudes leads to cheap and inferior quality everywhere you look.
in advanced countries new houses are better than old because of the advances on tech. in the UK it's the opposite because house building is just yet another subpar rip-off industry.
there are no large UK IT titans. Like in the USA, Germany, China ... cars, green tech, biotech ... nada and nothing. The FTSE is full of colonial remnants who are becoming increasingly irrelevant as the world moves forwards.
the UK is still trying to approach the world and trade as if the world some sort of colonial fiefdom and the UK is top dog. they want to be the manager and control class (exporting services) like their landed gentry and upper classes did back in the day. it's delusional.

where is the british leader with vision. how likely is one to arise from a system that above all looks to the past instead of to the future.
uk under-spends in capital investment, has a lowly educated and badly trained population, has low productivity and living standards when compared to the rest of the first world. and we have known about these problems for decades but there is no vision and there is no drive to change it because that small sub-section of the establishment are still ok and they don't care about the rest.
appearances above achievement. compare and contrast the uk mentality. yup the mentality.
... I mean Devil's Advocate with his "touch but don't taste" "taste but don't swallow" diametrically opposed realities.
? it would already be common knowledge.
