The one who stripped “defender of the faith” from her Royal title?

She didn't. It still stands. In any case, it's not in the Queen's power to alter - only Parliament could do that.

The one who will allow Muslim nobility and PMs, but not Catholics?

Goodness knows where you got that from. There are many Catholics in both Houses of Parliament.

The one who has responsibility for appointing a Druid has head of the Church of England?

She didn't. Rowan Williams's so-called 'druid' status was no more than a quaintly-titled literary award given by a Welsh cultural organisation in recognition of his work as a poet in the Welsh language. It has nothing whatever to do with paganism.

Three baseless myths about the Queen in three sentences. That's some achievement.

No, at her direction, Parliament changed the title to “Defender of Faith.”

I didn’t write MP, I wrote PM. No one in proximate line of succession to the throne nor Prime Minister may be Catholic. I did just learn, however, that as a result of the Succession to the Crown Act of 2015, an heir to the throne may marry a Catholic.

Yes, he participated in pagan worship for a mere, minor honor from a “Welsh cultural organization.” The proceeded to abolish any reference to Christ from the CoE’s New Year’s service, press for abolishing right of conscience for Christian opponents of abortion, and so on and so on.
