@lifetimeautumncircusticket Yeah, it's the politicians who enacts the rules. Queen Elizabeth clashed quite some times with Thatcher but is not allowed to be public about it. Same in Sweden, the King is head of staye but has no allowance to even make a statement that could be viewed as political. During the rationing of food in Sweden during WWI there were riots where impoverished workers allegedly forcfully had burgarlized bakeries the owners had not locked and bought bread without ration coupons. The lack of ration coupons was because they regularly were stolen by the honorable middleclass people who administrated it and sold on the black market so large familiesdid not get the cooupons theyshould have. Anyway, these rioters were sentenced to prison despite the bakeryowner witnessed that there was no damage to his store, he had forgot to lock the store that day and it was no damage to him for the bread, he had a larger stock than there were coupons for so he had otherwise had needed to throw away old flour and bread. He was also satisfied with the pay they had left at the desk, he had recieved appropriate payments. Eventually the King in Sweden overturned the sentences, I think he did it ex officio as well.

@rissole799 Though the royals serve in the wars that middleclass elected governments have enrolled in. Queen Elizabeth drove ambulance in London during WWIi. That's more you can say of either Tony Blair or David Cameron. How about Thatcher's kids? Former NATO director Anders Fogh Rasmussen was a political broiler with no real hands on experience of anything.

@rissole799 Ya know there's probably more homeless people at skid row in LA than whole of England, that in a high tax state state ran by democrats since Adam was sheriff in the county...Or some countries in south america, none of which is a monarchy. How do you fit that in your theory of what the root of cause is? Your argument is like watching a kid trying to fit a square in a circle.
