    British citizens as His Majesty’s subjects bear true allegiance to His Majesty King Charles the Third, his Heirs and Successors according to law. Feddit.UK’s intended audience is His Majesty’s subjects within the United Kingdom, although I’m sure anyone is welcome.

      I think one of the best aspects of the UK is political freedom. Perhaps I am a subject of the King (I don’t know if that’s legally true but it might be), but in any case, I can still say that I hope the UK will get rid of the monarchy and replace it with a democratically elected head of state.

      This is an impressive amount of trolling, even for you Flax.

      No. The monarch doesn’t own me and I refuse to owe it anything. Hopefully one day the British state will get rid of the embarrassment of being headed by a family of nepo babies.

        President Farage, anyone?

          Reform UK is only supported by about a third of the electorate at the moment. More than any other single party, but if there was an election for a British head of state, and that election ended up being a choice between Farage and one other person, Farage could very well lose.

          Also you said in another post that “President Farage could remove elections”. I think that if we have an elected head of state then they should only have similar powers to what the King has now. Parliament should still be sovereign.

            It’s significantly worse. President Farage could remove elections, suppress democracy, etc. The Prime Minister doesn’t have command of the Military either, all commands have to go through His Majesty The King.

          The vast majority of us don’t do this, no.

            What law did Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor break?

              He settled, out of court, for the charge of sexual assault against Virginia Guthrie.

              I’m also gonna preempt you saying, “hE WaS NeVeR CoNvIcTeD!”, because you and I both know that just because it doesn’t go through the courts, doesn’t mean you’re not guilty of something.

                Do we have evidence that he knew she was being coerced?

                  I think her memoirs make it perfectly clear she realised what was happening. Do you wish it was you instead? You seem pretty keen to suck some royal cock.
