Liberal propaganda, that is. Fear allows the liberals to march their agenda roughshod over civil society. Look at the state of Britain today.

I take that “constitutional crisis” as left-wing propaganda. The march of the godless in Britain is a constitutional crisis. The monarch should not aid it, or else that will guarantee loss of the Crown.

The last defender of Christendom in the western world.

A beautiful woman in every way. And it still the lot falls to her that she must witness the final victory of the filthy Saracens.

We can only hope the queen outlives the insufferable toff.

God Save the Queen...save us from that Nitwit son you and Prince Philip birthed perhaps I pray you have the prophetic knowledge to pass over him down to Prince William who has married the pretty Kate instead of that horse Charles married after the beloved Diana died.

She’s not only the Queen of England (or Great Britain even) — she’s the Queen of all 16 nations in the Commonwealth Realm (that includes Canada, and Australia). She, or her representatives (various Governors General or Lieutenant Governors General) give assent to all legislation passed by every nation, province, or territory in the Realm.

If she were to refuse assent on a Bill that had wide popular support (usually gaged by the fact that it was duly passed in Parliament), it would likely mean the end of her reign — at least within the particular dominion, whose legislation was affected.

The constitutions (both written and unwritten) of the Commonwealth Countries have evolved to be quite different from that of the USA. (For that matter, even your written constitution has evolved substantially over the years.) The reigning Monarch simply does not have near the powers of the “ruling” U.S. President. The U.S. President is both Head of State, and Head of Government; while the Queen is just Head of State, and various Prime Ministers are Heads of their respective Governments.

Americans fought a Revolution (in part) against the British Monarch of the day — it’s a bit ironic to see Americans on this forum demanding that the current Monarch be more dictatorial.

The monarch is a figurehead. They (thankfully) have no actual power. Laws are made and passed by Parliament, on behalf of the public who elected them. Unlike the unelected monarch.

Its good that we have an impartial person like the monarch, but they cannot be allowed to get involved in politics.

It isn’t. We have not and cannot allow the monarch to have power over the elected parliament. The monarch must remain an impartial figurehead.

We have already fought one bloody civil war over this.

1-—Charles is no nitwit. But an intelligent and passionate man (and a personal friend of one Freeper). Oh and he isn’t Muslim or a Muslim groupie.

2—The rule of succession must take its course.

LOL, a bit like some pro-lifers.

Who want as limited govt as possible, except where this one issue comes in, and then they want as much govt interference as possible to eliminate the right to choose.

Well, those that are all for the destruction of the UK are just fine with it.

Not that the queen agrees with it judging by her approval of so-called civil partnerships, but something must be done by someone. A civil war is coming thanks to the left-wing policies.
