A Democratic Alternative to the Monarchy

Dear Home Secretary,
Can we please have a referendum to ask the people of the United Kingdom if they wish to continue with the Monarchy or if they would prefer a democratically elected Head of State.

Why is this important?

This is important to create a more equal country, We currently have a system where one family has special status, power and privileges. This is a corrupt system and enables the continuation of the class system. The Monarchy is something that should be consigned to history if we want to move forward as a more equal and democratic country in the 21st century. We would still have the history and Royal Palaces, which could be open to tourists. However we would no longer have a system where most people are second class citizens in their own country.
