Not just that. Holding up a blank sign can get you in trouble and will have the police bothering you on suspicion that you might intend to write something on the sign that could potentially offends some people.

I find it interesting that a lot of the same demographics that wanted such policies are the ones now impacted by them.

> If UK citizens are not happy with this divine state, they should move to USA, a country that revolted and left that very monarchy. Welcome to a republic, if we can keep it! Exactly and there you go. If you don't like it then you're free to move to another country that has a brilliant republic. Must be going just fine in the greatest republic on the planet; The United States of America.

> We have freedom here

There is no such thing as absolute freedom.

> We can roll coal, smoke legal weed

Only in some states you can smoke it, not all.

> and pay for our own health care!

Until you don't like the very high price of your medical bill, especially for senior folks.

For those that can afford a medical bill of over $100k and I'm guessing that given the majority in this orange site are complaining about over a trillion in prices by insurers, and hospitals my suspicion tells me that they cannot and is unacceptable to them which is why I'm not surprised why everyone here [0] continues to complain about it for decades.

Those are the small prints, but what I am saying is for those who want a republic in the UK are going to wait a long time for that, and they might as well move to the US instead. But it seems that as evident in this orange site full of well off technologists living in the US, they are still complaining in [0]. So I will expect people who are less well off to complain even more in the US.
