Republicanism in the United Kingdom
Political movement to replace the United Kingdom's monarchy with a republic
Summary
British republicans seek to replace the United Kingdom's monarchy with a republic led by an elected head of state. Monarchy has been the form of government used in the United Kingdom and its predecessor domains almost exclusively since the Middle Ages, with the exception of the Interregnum from 1649–1660, during which a nominally republican government did exist under the rule of Oliver and later Richard Cromwell.

/* Political parties */
the linked article doesn't mention the monarchy nor republicanism
I considered altering this to “public support for the monarchy’s reaching historic lows” (for the sake of formal grammar, since “reaching” is here a gerund), but it makes the text read as if the public supports a reach by the monarchy for historic lows.
