Karl Barks posted:i like orwell btu this doesn't make sense. germany had a king, japan had an emperor The German Kaiser was a constitutional monarch but not in the modern sense, he could name and fire the chancellor at will and had complete control of foreign policy. Both Germany and Austria-Hungary occupied a middle ground between powerless ceremonial monarchy and absolute monarchy around the time of WWI and leaned towards the latter. Hirohito was very much a figurehead but for a military junta instead of a democratic government.

These are people who thought the centenary of WWI should be celebrated with street parties, so I think that may have happened regardless of the Brexit vote.

noob question: how come the polls don't include SNP and the other regional parties? won't those parties probably hold about 70 seats or so? What do the Westminster polls tell us, practically?

I can't believe all the talk about constitutional monarchy being a bulwark against fascism and nobody brought up the Kingdom of Italy, which was literally a constitutional monarchy.
