A vote to end our association with a foreign monarch, though he/she would remain head of the Commonwealth of which we are a part. I certainly do not want Charles III's picture on my...

    Service Second to None

    No different working with customers, be they internal or external, on civy street. Even the "HQ staff" gets in the way on occasion like in the military with ideas on how they want things run, vs day to day reality.
