Having the Queen as our head of state ...
Having the Queen as our head of state costs us nothing (so having a president or whatever would cost more money). Plus, we'd have to redraft a lot of laws and shit. That would also cost a lot of money, much of which would go to lawyers.

i say ditch the queen. she is of no relevance to New Zealand anymore, weve grown as a nation and we dont need some fascist ol bag 23,000km away controlling us.
Yet we can still stay in the commonwealth, sure the queen has no relevance to us in a republician society but remaining part of the Commonwealth can still have its benefitrs (the CW Games for example)

Sir Richard Hadlee
Dame Susan Devoy
