also still a monarchy. like straight up. not even like vestigial royal family, just straight up a monarchy where the king gets your shit if you die and the royal family keeps interferring and blocking shit
Uhh yeah but the parliament that can be dissolved by the monarch at any time and is elected democratically (at least sometimes, considering recent events) says that's okay so actually that's democractic. That reflects the will of the populace
Everyone also seems to be missing the house of lords lol. Lifetime appointments (not elected), spots for the church of england, and a whole punch of hereditary peers. Amazingly democratic upper house there.
