UN addresses critical issue

"A United Nations report says Britain should abolish its monarchy.

The UN Human Rights Council said the UK must "consider holding a referendum on the desirability or otherwise of a written constitution, preferably republican".

The council has 29 members including Saudi Arabia, Cuba and Sri Lanka. It was the Sri Lankan envoy who raised concerns over the British monarchy.

The resulting report said Britain should have a referendum on the monarchy and the need for a written constitution with a bill of rights.

The UN report was also critical of the UK's treatment of immigrants from Sudan.

Syrian representaives accused the UK of discriminating against Muslims and Iran complained about the UK's record on tackling sexual discrimination

Perhaps this was partially in result of knowing of that?

In a way I'm looking forward to some Democrat led years, perhaps we will finally get out of the UN.

Iran complains about sexual discrimination...how funny...since they discriminate against women..I had a friend whom I had e-mail communication with in Iran...she told me she could not go anywhere alone without a male or female escort..and sexual relations were forbidden outside of marriage...she could not hold hands nor kiss her BF in public...'against the law'...many other issues also ...wearing of bathing suits forbidden...could not go to a lake and enjoy swimming if males were around...what a great place to live...!
