somebody tell President Obama..

RE: somebody tell President Obama..
I'm right-wing, voted for the Conservatives, and I support abolition of the monarchy. All political parties that have any power are pro-monarchy. This isn't a coincidence; it is literally impossible for a party to get elected and be anti-monarchist. All elected MPs have to pledge to uphold the monarchy when they are sworn in. That's why a lot of Northern Ireland republicans (usually from the Sinn Fein party) abstain from Parliament, even though they are elected by the majority.

I think the only way of getting rid of the monarchy in this country would be via a civil war. No party can hold a referendum on the matter, since doing so would be grounds for dismissal from parliament.
