Challenge the Oath
A legal requirement to swear an oath of allegiance to the Queen is discriminatory and unjust. By forcing people to take oaths they do not truly believe we devalue and undermine their importance. We believe there should be a choice of oath for republicans. This is a political and legal challenge to make that choice a reality.
About the Oath

In the UK a lot of people are required by law to swear a personal oath of allegiance to the Queen and her 'heirs and successors' if they wish to pursue a particular career or become a British citizen.

Here you can find out who takes the oath (and who doesn't), what the oaths say and about the history and legal issues surrounding the oaths of allegiance in the UK and the Commonwealth.

'Challenge the Oath' is a campaign run by Republic.
