Prince Harry: No one in royal family wants to rise to throne
Well eventually one of them will have to rule the throne because Queen Elizabeth isn't going to live forever.
shareThey say that the royal family is an imposter anyway. If they don't want the throne, maybe they should give it back to original owners.
shareHmm. Couldn't they ask a cousin or some distant relative to take the throne if no one in the immediate family wants it? Either way, they're really just figureheads in the end.
shareQueen does have some powers, we found that out during Brexit. She gave her "royal assent" to Theresa May to officially start Brexit procedure.
It's not exactly clear how far can royal assent go. It's known for certain that Queen occasionally signs stuff that would otherwise be impossible to achieve. A good example is american base on Diego Garcia island which would've been impossible to build without Queen's interference.
Huh. I didn't know that. Does the Queen have as much power as the President of the US? I thought it was a little less, but I honestly don't know much about British government.
shareNah, she basically has no power, except for that Royal Assent thingy that she uses very scarcely. But when she uses it, it's usually done in secrecy and not many people have a clue that she did it. (except when investigative journalists start digging)
