Should sports people be expected to sing the national anthem if they believe the monarchy should die!

After all the fuss about Bradley Wiggins (it actually wasn’t him but Colm Quinn) and Piers Morgan, why should someone sing the national anthem that makes a statement about two aspects in the world that somebody may not believe in; God and the healthy and safety of the monarch.

As the bible is no longer the only thing that you can swear on in a court of law, surely you should be able to sing a different anthem if it’s not something you believe in. Being an atheist republican, or an anarchist doesn’t mean you are not proud of your country!
