Don’t know if you can count on Charles:

King Charles inaugurates an Islamic centre, praises Muslims and calls on British citizens to greater understanding of Islamic world. It seems like a joke but it isn’t.

Don’t know! I’ll ask some UK’ers about that. The last Blair & Johnson* Parliaments really did a number on the vestigial remnants of royal power. Charles has less say in government then his mother. Elizabeth was able to use the “royal prerogative” and break “political log jams” in both the UK and Australia. That ability is gone now.

* You would think the Conservatives (Johnson) would want to conserve UK government traditional things! I guess not!

I think it's important that the Monarch should be allowed to call for a general election anytime.

That would be an important check on the power of the Parliament.

British subjects can appeal to their reigning monarch to call a new election to replace the prime minister.

That would be great if it was still allowed.

This petition that’s circulating if it reaches a high enough number in signatures* its supposed to trigger a debate in Parliament as to whether to have an early election. Yeah that’ll work I can predict the Parliamentary vote on that right now!

* Right now I can’t find that number and UK people I have been discussing this with haven’t gotten back to me with a number.

Good point- that’s what it’s akin to for sure.
