I’m no expert, but since they keep having official Queen’s visits, put the Queen on their coins and generally through all these wars even as “independent” have been at the beck & call of UK, you’re darn right I view them as never truly independent. (That goes for Australia and NZ too, which is why I made that qualifying comment before.)
Post #27 proves you wrong.
