Queen Elizabeth II is one of the most famous and admired people in the world. Her influence as Britain’s nominal leader since 1952, which made her the country’s oldest monarch, is felt all over the world. But despite her enormous influence, the Queen has no real power over the British government.

 

The Historical Power of the Monarchy

 

For centuries, the British monarchy has retained much authority, but its history is full of challenges to its power and concessions to the aristocracy. Even more famously, the signing of the Magna Carta by King John in 1215 recognized that the power of the monarchy had its limits and, more importantly, established that the Crown could not impose taxes without the consent of religious leaders and the council of feudal lords. His advice from rich and powerful figures turned into a parliament and gradually played an important role as the British began to settle disputes and send representatives to request them.

Parliament’s role ultimately depended on the power the monarch wanted to give and the parliamentary support he needed. Charles, I ruled without parliament for more than a decade and entered into a motion event in 1649 that ended with his beheading and abolition of the monarchy. Parliament ruled without a king until the monarchy was restored in 1660.

During the glorious revolution of 1688, parliament invaded England with William II of Orange and his wife Mary II, and dismissed James II, who wanted absolute power. William and Marie subsequently agreed on a Charter of Rights that legally required a regular convention, giving them full freedom of expression in Congress and adopting various civil liberties. Britain does not have a single written constitution like the United States, but basic documents such as the Magna Carta and the Charter of Rights have officially come to the power of the crown and have given it to Congress.

 

The UK government is changing

 

Over time, Congress has become a truly representative government, as has the United States Congress. Its upper house, the House of Lores, was composed of aristocrats and originally had almost all the powers of Parliament, but for centuries the House of Commons became more powerful. By the 1700s, the House of Commons had obtained the sole right to initiate taxes, meaning that legislative bodies composed of elected officials controlled the State Stock Exchange because most had not yet been able to vote.

The monarch reserves the right to “invite” those who would be happy with him to form a government, but this is a continuation of a time when the “prime minister” was an unofficial way of referring to parliamentarians elected by the king or queen to lead the proceedings. For more than a century, the Crown has always invited party leaders who control Parliament – the last time a British monarch tried to push his favorite prime minister into Parliament was in 1834, and it didn’t work. Similarly, it is said that representative governments would rule “on their behalf” and that their formal consent remains necessary for much of the functioning of the state, but that it would violate more than a century of tradition so that the Queen would not criticize, obstruct or agree with the will of Parliament.

 

The Queen’s Role in Today’s Government

 

Queen Elizabeth II worked at a Royal Train office in May 2002.

The Queen remains the British head of state, the highest representative of the United Kingdom on the national and international scene. However, the head of the British government is the Prime Minister. One is the symbol of the country and the other is the executive director of government.

In her role as Head of State, Queen Elizabeth II will regularly make speeches at the opening of each new parliament, giving official appearances and speeches on public holidays and special occasions. The Queen is in close contact with the Prime Minister and is regularly briefed on all major national issues, but she does not publicly weigh in on the political debate and there is no final decision against her.

Queen Elizabeth, her husband, and children have highlighted her role in various charities, as the royal family has disarmed most of her political power, while the Queen is a “godmother” of more than 600 charities, but this role is primarily aimed at drawing attention to the cause..

 

With the collapse of Britain’s global empire in the wake of World War II, many of its official colonies declared independence but chose to enter the Commonwealth, which the Queen remains the head of the figure. Citizens of Australia, Canada, and many island nations around the world call it the subject of Queen Elizabeth, who rose to fame on 13 of these “Commonwealth lands” in 1953. Elizabeth appears in many currencies in these countries, and her visits are usually a reason to celebrate, but her duty, like her, is quite ceremonial.
