Harvie will instead speak at a rally outside Holyrood organised by the anti-monarchy group Our Republic.“It is an out-of-date and undemocratic institution. “I will be proud to speak at the Our Republic rally and to stand with others who want to build a more democratic society where power and wealth belongs to the people rather than being passed down as an inheritance.
