You do realise the Queen actually has very little say in our political process and it's been like that since 1660. She just welcomes each new democratically elected parliament to session. They have to sign bills for them to become laws and in theory they can refuse but they don't. She can block a law like once, but after that parliament can get rid of her, this hasn't happened for 300 years. She can call general elections within 5 years of the previous one, but in reality this is up to the prime minister. Despite such things, she has very little say in British politics, she is just the head of state, head of the armed forces and the COE, but has little power in any of them. Despite what you think of them, tourists from around the world come to London, just to see Buckingham palace. That is key to our local economy, as people will go to other attractions while in London. She is Britain's symbol and is recognisable worldwide, a bit like how Egypt is known for it's Pyramids or how Las Vegas is known for it's casinos, it's the same thing. The monarchy is to ingrained in our history to ever replace. There must be a reason why some countries in the commonwealth like Australia and Canada continue to have the queen as the head of state, even though they don't have to |
any power for the unelected scum is too much.
fuck tourists, they would visit if you put glitter on summat.
yeah, to brainwash their populations into blind submission to their elite scum classes.
