This is an impressive amount of trolling, even for you Flax.
Feddit.UK’s intended audience is His Majesty’s subjects within the United Kingdom
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.
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.
The King can appoint anyone he likes as prime minister and anyone he likes as lords. The Royal Family only follow a predictable tradition. The King carries command over the armed forces, police, etc. I do not trust an elected official with that role. The fact is, the Windsor family (as they are now called but have gone through different name changes) have been custodians of this land for almost 1000 years and in the last 300 have done an excellent job at keeping it. The biggest threat was Edward VIII who was swiftly removed from power anyway.
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.

That’s not worse than Prime Minister Farage, which could be the case come 2029, so I don’t see your point.
