We, the people, oppose the new South Glasgow University Hospital being named after a monarch.


We, the people, oppose the new South Glasgow University Hospital being named after a monarch.
The Issue
We call on the Greater Glasgow and Clyde Health Board and/or the Scottish Government to change the name of the new South Glasgow hospital. Naming the new hospital after a monarch is an affront to our democracy. The fundamental principle of democracy is the equality of all people. Considering the fundamental principle of monarchy is superiority of the monarch and their family over everyone else in society, we feel the naming of a public building after such a person is unacceptable.
