ORIGINAL: Politesub53 Yes, but she was following the rules of Parliament. Labour had more seats than the Conservatives but not enough for overall control. As Heath was the existing Prime Minister he was asked to try and form a government (In consensus with any other party) There was another election later that year, Labour had more seats than heath, but this time enough to form a majority government, albeit by just three seats. Yeah you’re right about that. I had a look on line and it seems to be policy to invite the pre-existing prime-minister to form a government in the case of hung parliament. The strange thing is that when I read about what happened it was made to sound like the Queen has unduly significant power to simply be a figurehead. Largely the same point seemed the same on a BBC doc I saw a few years back! Much the same as people reading RO`s arguments and taking them as fact. It is easier to make something fit an argument than to look at the plain and simple truth. The Queen has limited powers in the UK and none in the US. absolute trash! Another brit play on words! You can find this in the parliamentary records IN ENGLAND! So for educational purposes ONLY: quote:

As I have said many times that people do not understand land law which is the whole point here, and expatriating from the polity as has been done in the Declaration of Independence has not a damn thing to do with paramount ownership of the land. . . and in anything just gave it all up as a result of said expatriation. america is a fucking colony of the crown, so is canada and I suspect mexico but I have not proven mexico to myself yet.
