Some people around the place give David Flint a hard time. Not on here, obviously, but quite a few people in public life unfairly put the boot him, presumably because his accent is jarring to many Australian ears.
I'll say this though, he's good media talent. He sticks to the script, is consistent, and doesn't get ruffled even though virtually every journalist that interviews him disagrees strongly with him. Well done.
Flint is both the best and worst asset for the Australian monarchist cause; for the reasons you said he's a perfect frontman, but unfortunately his accent, demeanour and age don't help to discourage the stereotype (much propogated by the republicans) that monarchists are either old or British, and that the monarchy is something un-Australian that has to be defended by someone who, in appearances, seems to be an elderly upper class Englishman.
the brazilian gouvernmentsupport of the argentinians upon Falklands do not express the feealing of brazilian. We do not thrust on him. They are ever false upon us.god sqave the Queen and the english people. Cláudio Trarbach- Porto alegre-Brazil
The queen is a head of state of 16 independent countries. With each other linkedly by one crown. This is no anachronism. This is a unique national-connecting precious object. One must protect this and receive.
The republicans state without the british monarchy the world became better. Show me a country where the end of the monarchy was an improvement: France (terror of the guillotine), Russia (Iron curtain till 1990), Germany (vacuum used from Hitler), Iran (rule of the mullahs). Republicans are shameless liars and historical forgers!
Republicans say: Monarchy is irrelevant. Follow Leicester this week: Gigantic rejoicing human masses. No president gets such admiration and approval.
If you want to know which heads of state are irrelevant, then come to Germany. I exchange immediately our interchangeable heads for a monarch like Queen Elizabeth honoured everywhere.
