Should he ?

Obviously, the Queen, who has shown more statesmanship and dignity in her long tenure than most of our elected representatives in a fraction of the time.

Name one member of the royal family you can genuinely respect for their own sake

The Queen, I can’t believe the anti royalist nature of the posts here:mad:
And yes he should bow, there shouldn’t even be a debate about it.

Name one member of the royal family you can genuinely respect for their own sake,not just as a royal,and I might agree with you.As for Murray bowing,possibly as a mark of respect from a younger man to an older woman,yes.

BB – I think you might have guessed this thread would get the republicans out, having a rant and spouting the usual rubbish.;)

Of course it matters ! If he has any respect for himself as a human being, equal to all other human beings.

First of all they have no rights from `God` even if this `God was to exist, even if we wanted a royal family surely we would want one with English heritage, they serve no purpose what so ever, they cost us massive amounts of money we do not want to spend and can not afford to even if we wanted to. Evil, selfish, inbreds

No, it doesn’t really matter.

But he should just to be polite.
