You can just guess the queen's done evil poo poo off the back of her being old, English, and rich. Her being morally neutral would be a statistical anomaly.

I feel like the queen's image as morally neutral is probably more an artefact of good public relations rather than reality.

For people wondering how long Charles will reign, here's a picture of his hands. (You can google it on Images; multiple news stories.)How many deaths does it take before even monarchists aren't sentimental about the monarchy?

People actually like William (the public image of) and having Buggerlugs wandering around sticking his nose into politics is going to break up the image of Royal neutrality in a way you'd never get from Liz no matter how many tax dodge leaks hit her.
