For as long as the crown has the power that it has (not least as the instrument of government and approval of legislation), parliamentary sovereignty is but wishful thinking. Parliament may have considerable power, but the sovereign remains sovereign, for all the limitations placed on and/or accepted by him or her. This is not a quibble or an undemocratic opinion. Constitutional studies have to deal unambiguously with such detail. The existence of the crown and the continued exercise of all governmental power in its name is what defines the UK and its governance. Parliament sits in a royal palace and the king or queen has to sanction all its laws. A representation of the crown is to be found in all courts and on official documents, and the expression UK Government isn't based in fact. The national anthem isn't about the nation but about the sovereign. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Pfedanon (talk • contribs) at 14:00, 13 July 2021
