Really? And blow the monarchy's neutrality? Defy the voted for will of the people?
Given the tone of your post, can I assume you would want her to do this in order to undermine the monarchy?
- speeder 13y agoI don't get it... Why this would undermine monarchy? You are saying that british people EXPECTS the queen to do nothing when people are doing shit? Wtf of system is that?
- weavejester 13y agoIt's called representative democracy.
- precisioncoder 13y agoThe UK isn't a monarchy...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitutional_monarchy http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constitutional_monarchy Basically the royal family has mostly ceremonial duties not political ones.
- johneth 13y agoYou obviously don't understand the relationship of the Queen and the UK government. She is a non-political 'figurehead' head of state. She represents the state. She has to be non-political and neutral, as she is unelected. If she started spouting off her own opinions on various things (even if you might agree with them), then it would undermine this relationship to such an extent that in all likelihood, the monarchy would be abolished.
- cwp 13y agoBasically, the British monarchy continues to exist because it does nothing. The prime minister is elected by the people if he does something the people don't like, they can elect someone else. If the Queen does something the people don't like, their only recourse is to abolish the monarchy.
