Angry protesters in Cape Town have confronted the king and queen of the Netherlands as they visited a museum that traces part of their country's 150-year involvement in slavery in South Africa.
The British monarchs still hold power and information came out years ago showing some of the extent of it and how they still decide government actions and laws.
It’s hilarious to me that Canadians will pretend the monarchy doesn’t have power over them because they can only appoint and remove the guy who has power over them at will.
Seriously. It’s hilarious to hear people talk about how their actual head of state totally isn’t their head of state because they usually don’t do anything.
Sadly yes
Do they actually hold power or is it more like england with using them as trashy entertainment?

Also, that guy?
Can override anything their Prime Minister does.
And they only use that guy to not be rude.
If they wanted to do it directly, they could.

Well that sucks.
They’re not that entertaining unfortunately.
