Motion passed by Islington South CLP on the monarchy, with suggested amendment following arrests on coronation day, 6 May 2023

Replace the monarchy by a democratic republic

The following motion was passed by Islington South CLP on 11 January 2023:

We resolve to campaign for, and call on the Labour Party leadership to campaign for, the replacement of the monarchy by a democratic republic, with any post of president limited to ceremonial and formal functions.

Activists may like to add a further sentence when putting it now in other CLPs:

We condemn the arrests of republican organisers, and confiscations of placards and megaphones, around the coronation ceremony on 6 May 2023, and the spending of £250 million of public money on that ceremony.
