Not really quite as much when you consider that he cannot belong to any political party and cannot vote, even for a town councilor, let alone a member of Parliament He is a symbol, comparable to the American Flag or the Great Seal of the United States. He cannot give advite to his Government, but must take the advice of the Cabinet and sign where he is told on the dotted line. Democracy When you stop to think of it, the British government is a great deal more democratic than our own. All of the power is in the hands of the common people, who elect the House of Commons. The Commons selects the Cabinet, which the King must appoint, from our own membership, and the Cabinet so appointed, is called and actually is the Government. fices.
