Republic in the UK?

Tiberius Wrote:Hardly the point when she has the power to exercise them, and so do her descendants. Just because the current Queen doesn't use them in no way means one of her descendants won't. In any case, this was about the Queen having no power, which is a complete falsehood.

Hardly the point when I simply asked how many times she has exercised her power. It wasn't meant to be a rhetorical question making a point. I was truly wondering out of curiousity how many times she has actually ever used her powers.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell
