You don't even need to go into secret meetings. In her public speeches at parliament she interferes and sets a direction for her government (it's hers, not ours). Like calling for more and continued austerity amid the crisis, I don't call that being apolitical (also the irony of calling for austerity from a golden throne shouldn't be lost oje anyone).
- mnw21cam 6y agoYou know that particular speech is written for her by the government, don't you?
- nicky0 6y agoIt's OK, it would be asking a lot for a Labour supporter to understand the constitution.
- steve_gh 6y agoThe only speech the Queen makes in Parliament is "The Queen's Speech" at teh State Opening of Parliament. In it she set's out the Government's Agenda for the next session of Parliament. It's written by the Government; she reads it out. She has no part in its preparation.
