Australia could be the first domino for a Commonwealth exodus.

Buckingham Palace is reportedly concerned a number of countries will sever ties with the Royal Family when Charles becomes King.

At the top of the list of countries most likely to leave are Australia and Jamaica.

Of course Albanese isn't a royal fan and he has already said there will be a referendum on this issue if he gets a second term - plus he's already appointed Matt Thistlethwaite to be the first minister responsible for overseeing a transition to a Republic.

Head of the Australian Republican Movement Peter Fitzsimons joined Mike Hosking.
