I would like to thank the Guardian for its recent reporting about the monarchy. In contrast to one of your readers complaining about your “unrelenting attacks” (Letters, 27 April) on the institution, I have found huge solace in seeing my views expressed at long last.

The recent research that reveals a general decline in people thinking that the monarchy is very important is not reflected adequately in the mainstream media. Republicans and others who are concerned about the increasing wealth disparity in the UK are made to feel unpatriotic by most media outlets.
