It’s a constitutional monarchy, a tradition they respect. Not all of Brits want to keep it but many do and in it’s way, it works for them. Understanding what they went through when they tried to abolish the monarchy will clarify how and why it was resumed.
Even though the monarch has no true power, they represent a continuity that exists, over and above changes of PM. ‘Continuity’?...there’s something to be said for that in the way it works and has sustained over time.
.....and now for something completely different................
The UK’s Deep State thinks the monarchy has power.
Which is why the UK’s Deep State wants it gone.
Which perplexes me because KCIII marches in lockstep with Deep State.
Makes me wonder if their Deep State doesn’t trust William to be as compliant.
If so, that could explain why two Deep States are conniving with the Harkles.
And, if William is on the side of the angels and is just biding his time, he’d better tread carefully. Deep States won’t have that.
Hope he’s got a plan if things go pear-shaped.
A Blair parliament removed the last vestige of monarchial power when it abolished the “reserved rights of the sovereign”. Elizabeth II was the last to use it I think back in the 1970s. She untangled some political messes that the parliaments of UK and I think Canada. Basically she forced new elections. It would have been a useful power for the sovereign to have now.
