CHAPTER ONE : THE MONARCHY.
For several centuries the British monarch had several powers (judiciary, legislative and executive).
Executive deals with everyday life of the country.
Legislative branch of government is the power to make laws.
Judiciary branch is the power to interprate and enforce laws.
But with the creation of an independent judiciary, the direct exercise of those prerogatives progressively decreased. In particular the 18 19 century witnesses the eroding of the monarchs final real powers. That is to say that the actually governing thrue the other ministers until the British monarchy finally became the constitutional monarchy that we know today. (The king was suffering, so the powers of the monarchs progressively decreased years after years and the industry of revolution increased, so the power was given to parliament) The British queen personifies the state. In law, she is the head of the executive, she is part of parliament, she is the head of the judiciary, the commander who chief of the arm forces and the supreme governor of the church of England. She has a rôle to play in parliament. She is the head of the judiciary and she is also the supreme governor of England (Temporal chief : the queen, spiritual chief : the archbishop of Canterbury). The monarchs free main rights have the rights to be consulted, to encourage and to warn. The powers of the queen seem to be very important but in practice the queen's powers are very limited nowadays. The sentence that is used is : « The queen reigns but does not rule » in other words she is the main figure of the state but she does not rule.
The monarchy is therefore complicatedly useless. First of all the queen has the great advantage of stabilising and unify the country, because she is always there whereas the successive governments come and go depending on the tide of political fortune. There is three political parties (Conservative party, Caber party, Liberal democrats : quite small). Margaret
