    Dear oh deary me.

    Now settle down chaps, if you don't the thread will be locked by Macbeths erstwhile mate. You should continue this by PM.

    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

    Amen I suggested that but it fell on deaf ears.

    Trying to salvage this thread can some one please explain what powers if any the queen holds in the other commonwealth nations? Are they the same as her power in the UK or less?
