    If they voted against dethroning their tyrant I think you can stick a fork in any referendum threatening to give more of their people more of a voice in their government.

      Are you talking republic vs monarchy? If so that vote was an eternity ago (1999). The Yes campaign was not regarded as being run especially well.

      I expect another referendum on this to pass in my lifetime, most likely within the next decade once the Queen stuff dies down so to speak. My feeling is that support for a republic is there amongst the younger population so would likely get up, especially with the older generation dying off.
