Worth remembering that we in the UK have already had a French style revolution with the monarch being decapitated in 1649.

It was considered a "bad move" and his son was restored to the role of head of state about 12 years later to correct it. :P

The idea of a powerless head of state has always appealed to me. I can't think of anything worse than someone like Johnson assuming that role.
