Thanks, Shanshee, I didn't take offense to that term in the context of how he used it. It is true that the monarchy really doesn't have much effect one way or the other outside the UK, while conversely our politics do have global consequences.

Yeah well it's all about pervasive societal attitudes as far as I'm can see.
The Pope and The Queen are supposed to be 'opposites' in the minds of some but look at the living quarters and the trappings and protocols and all that.
Same with yer politicians, wherever whatever. Hierarchy is hierarchy, whichever way it's presented to 'us'.
Something like that.
