Morrissey has said that he "politely declined" an offer to deliver an alternative UK TV Christmas Day speech.
The former Smiths star claimed that he was invited to front Channel 4's annual festive message, which is broadcast at the same time as the Queen's Speech on BBC One.
Writing on his fansite True To You, Morrissey reaffirmed his well-known contempt for the British monarchy but added that Christmas Day isn't the time "to be trading slaps".
Morrissey, who opened his recent gig Dublin's 3Arena with The Queen is Dead, wrote: "My view that the monarchy should be quietly dismantled for the good of England is reasonably well-known, but I don't think Christmas Day is quite the time to be trading slaps.
"The Queen should be allowed the impassioned trance of her annual address to the British people, if only to once again prove that, in her frozen posture, she has nothing to offer and nothing to say, and she has no place in modern Britain except as a figure of repression; no independent thought required.
"The Queen very well might be the most powerful woman in England, but she lacks the power to make herself loved, and the phony inflation of her family attacks all rational intellect.
"All over the world highly civilised peoples exist without the automatic condescension of a 'royal' family. England can do the same, and will find more respect for doing so."
