1) Prince Harry is still available to marry! If we take away the Prince bit he is just Harry and that won't look as good on your Facebook status.
2) Will and Kate are probably going to have an epic fairytale wedding which will be fabulous to watch and means we all get a bank holiday!
3) If it weren't for the royals we wouldn't have The Royal Variety Performance which would mean no Britain's Got Talent : (
4) If we didn't have royals we wouldn't have The Royal Navy which would mean no more sailors : ( As a graduate from Portsmouth University I can tell you girls, this would be a travesty.
5) Whose face would we put on stamps, coins, notes, souvenirs? Please don't say Simon Cowell...
6) The Queen's Speech. Your nan loves it, your mum has an excuse to sit down for ten minutes and your brother gets to do impressions of Her Majesty that make great afternoon entertainment.
7) Grandeur, class, manners, gold, silver, architecture, antiques, The Crown, Equisite Jewellery, Carriages... Royalty makes the world a slightly more beautiful and elegant place.
8) History, legacy, heritage, national identity...
9) Some little girls dream of being doctors, nurses, teachers, soldiers, pilots, athletes one day. Some little girls also dream of being a princess one day. Without royalty, there wouldn't be any princesses. Don't crush the pretty pink fairytale!
10) TOURISM.
11) The Prince's Trust, The Duke Of Edinburgh... There are so many charities and organisations run by or in the name of royalty that might struggle to continue without them.
12) The National Anthem. What would our footballers forget the words to without it?
13) The soldiers outside Buckingham Palace. It's just soooooooooo fun trying to make them laugh.
I know many people don't understand why we need them, and I agree perhaps they could free up a few assets and support the nation in hard times but I want royalty to remain. Britain wouldn't be the same without them.
