Consent is and has been withheld, if things included in the proposed legislation are thought to be at odds with the interests of the monarchy. As I paid little heed to the individuals concerned most of the mindless tittle tattle has passed me by. The idea that a part of our government can hide its activities behind a wall of secrecy, denied to other branches of the government is in itself a scandal. Why is the best choice for part of our government; the head of state, an accident of birth?
This book is well researched and referenced. My view of the monarchy was and still is that it is a thoroughly rotten institution, I had however reserved judgement on the individuals that comprise the sprawling costly entity that is the royal family. It is one I recommend everyone to read whether Republican or Monarchist.
I have been for as long as I can remember unconvinced about the value of the British monarchy, for me the institution had about it a great negativity. The only Royal to come out unscathed from Normal Lamb’s book is Princess Anne, although the late Queen’s reputation hasn’t suffered too badly. They seemed to be more like a group of soap opera celebrities and as time has gone on with their seemingly petty squabbles, (the ones I am aware of that is,) making headline news, more so.
The Royal Family’s connections with Hitler and the far right during the thirties is something we ought to know more about, a full disclosure would be useful. This isn’t a rubber stamping exercise; the monarch has to approve any legislation to be debated. We are led to believe that our constitutional monarch has no influence over what legislation is debated and the royal assent, a rubber stamping exercise is proof of that.
He highlights tax dodging, a scandalous waste of taxpayer funds, dishonesty and hypocrisy. However, probably one of the most unsettling things in terms of our governance, highlighted by Baker, is the Royal Consent. What I was not aware of together with probably most of the British public, is that before any legislation is able to be debated, it first has to receive Royal Consent.
