Yes, that’s true ... and England was led by the incomparable Mrs. Thatcher.
European royalty rarely either lead or rule, these days, although they’re nice historical color, imo.
Exactly...and rumor (or rumour...ahem) has it the queen and Lady Thatcher did not get along (or “get on”) because HM isn’t very socially conservative.
HM just endorsed (or sanctified or encapsulated...whatever) “gay marriage” in the UK so she has some sort of “role” in establishing law, albeit, for show, maybe. Pity, really....
