I have joint citizenship of both Australia and the United Kingdom. I was born in and have lived most of my life in Australia, but have spent years in the UK. I’m a retired officer of the Royal Australian Navy who studied as an historian and who now teachers history and political studies and am very interested in the constitutions of the United Kingdom and the various Commonwealth Realms.

I have passed on the information you posted above on another site. Again, MANY thanks for your knowledge and clarity in presenting. I really think the British political system superior to the US.

You would be an interesting man to chat with given your different interests and experiences. I was rather shocked when told the Queen offered an opinion! She strikes me as a serious, thoughtful, restrained monarch, so the people must have felt thunderstruck by her entrance into the debate. I am glad she did, as I agreed wirh her, and she knows everything that will happen and must have believed the long run gain for her people outweighed the short run pain.
