they have power but they don't exert it to the point where people have essentially forgotten the role of the monarch

and since they have an unwritten constitution, the power of the monarch is really up for continual interpretation

like they can actually be quite powerful

if they want to go that route

Wait did you just say something that wasn't totally retarded or troll bait?

Boris Johnson crawled to her for permission to do the parliamentary thing

Technically

actually the queen has massive power over the courts, its not possible to even try, they will toss it out

theres weird rules, she doesnt need to follow road laws, she can commandeer any vehicle

and also commandeer a persons house in case of emergencies, and everyones favorite law she can take a child under 2 years old and adopt them

And apparently she personally owns all the swans and dolphins around...or some such garbage

@Dr.Cosby Could you clarify on what you mean by Boris ‘crawling’ for the queen‘s permission? Out of ignorance, I thought it was more of a common formality, as the monarch rarely exercises the royal prerogative against the advice of the PM unless it was an emergency.

@The Vile Vagabond I was exaggerating for the sake of comedy, sir

Sorry. My module for sensing sarcasm has been lately busted due to a viral infection known as a “cold”. I have sent complaints to my wife and inventor, respectively.

It's okay, the line is sometimes thin with me in any case

It’s only a formality because she treats it as such

Since she has a philosophy of remaining mostly apolitical

The whole Supreme Court ruling in general is a complete joke

It basically implies that the queen is a mindless being incapable of self thought

And that she is incapable of properly sorting through advice

@Pelth `It basically implies that the queen is a mindless being incapable of self thought`
The monarch acts on the advice of ministers so I could argue its less of being ‘mindless’ and more of avoiding jeopardy to her status. While Elizabeth is sovereign, the legitimacy of her rule comes from the people’s will, which is commonly *assumed* to be represented by the elected government. Her refusal could have lead to the removal of her right of veto, similar to the *Parliament Acts 1911 and 1949* with the HoL. She never had the choice to begin with.

`The whole Supreme Court ruling in general is a complete joke`
Agreed. They should be impartial. The Supreme Court has no right get political.

The court has over ruled the government

This should not happen

Absolute disgrace

Need I mention all the so called impartial judges receive money from the EU and all voted to remain

Not that it should matter am I right ? <a:hmm:535141356969132062>

I really wish the U.S. media would cover Brexit more. I have no clue what it is

There is a whole wide internet

full of disinformation

<:kek:612964806798082048>

Well man’s responsibility is to remove the dis from information

Quick run down: parliament ignores public majority vote to leave the EU, shenanigans ensue.

Brexit means Brexit, but not to the libtards

The people voted to leave, but wait this is 1984. They actually voted to stay.

brexit is such a meme

its the funniest thing to happen to scotland in years

I can't wait for the IRA to come back

The troubles ended in like the late 90s
