Letter: Monarchy today: hereditary principle, God's will, persons and offices
Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.Sir: I sincerely hope Matthew Hoffman's thesis is not correct ('President Branson? It's possible', 19 October). I support the monarchy because, on enthronement, it is affirmed that the ultimate power in this world is almighty God.
At least 25 per cent of the population is strongly of the Christian belief and when we pray, 'Thy will be done', we absolutely mean it, and further believe it is God's will and God's will alone by which mankind can solve its problems. We further believe no society can have stability and good purpose unless it is based on God's will.
Yours faithfully, G. T. BROWN Kingston upon Thames, Surrey 19 October
