Excitement Grows over the Royal Visit

The Australian Monarchist League sends its very best wishes to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on the announcement that Her Royal Highness is expecting a baby. This is, of course, the first visit to Australia of the Duchess and we extend a warm welcome to Her Royal Highness.

Tomorrow Their Royal Highnesses will commence an exhaustive range of engagements which will bring them into contact with as many people as possible. Indeed, we expect thousands to gather to greet the royal couple wherever they go.

The Australian Monarchist League will be at meet and greet sessions in Sydney, Melbourne and Dubbo to distribute Australian flags to those who gather to cheer the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. The flags are distributed free of charge at our own expense

Of course, the main purpose of the visit is to open and later close the Invictus Games, that magnificent charity established by Prince Harry to encourage those wounded in recent wars to participate in team and other sports and thus gain confidence and purpose in their day-to-day lives. We commend and honour the Prince for his dedication to help those who have sacrificed so much in service to their country.

If politicians had their own way and made us into a republic, we would not be having such an extensive visit by, arguably, the most popular couple in recent times. This is because Harry and now Meghan are our very own Prince and Princess.
