Sovereign Grant Bill 2026
September 10, 2026
In September, the Commons will debate the Sovereign Grant Bill 2026 The bill is needed because the Conservatives’ original 2011 bill allowed the Sovereign Grant,
Labour for a Republic seeks a society free from the divisions of rank, titles and class, one in which all citizens are regarded as of equal worth and in which citizens, collectively, are the ultimate authority.
In such a society there is no place for a sovereign monarch: the head of state should be chosen by, and accountable to, all citizens.
Labour for a Republic therefore campaigns to build the broadest possible support across the Labour Party for replacing the monarchy with an elected Head of State.
We support a serious, informed debate about the kind of country we want to be, and what kind of head of state matches that ambition.
We also support practical reforms that can build democratic standards now, while making the case for an elected head of state stronger and clearer over time.
