8 laws that the British Queen could violate
Twenty seven million four hundred seventy five thousand seven hundred seventy three
Absolute monarchy was in the past, but these days the Queen of great Britain there are a lot of benefits. These include the right to ignore laws that are required to comply with all mere mortals.
The website will tell you about the 8 laws and rules that Elizabeth II may break without any consequences.
The use of names
In the past members of the Royal family was not at all the names, they used only personal names and the names of the dynasties to which they belonged. It was not until 1917, while the grandfather of Queen Elizabeth II, king George V, did the name Windsor official for the whole of the British Royal family. But now the Queen and her immediate family do not use his name — it is simply not needed.
A passport
The passport of the Queen of great Britain does not need more than a surname. The absence of a "most important document" does not prevent the Queen to carry out bureaucratic formalities and to move freely around the world. This document is the ruling monarch can't simply be because it is impossible to issue a passport to himself, because in Britain it is issued on behalf of Her Majesty. As for crossing the border Elizabeth II is enough to present any bill on which is printed a portrait of her.
The right to drive the car
Another document, without which the Queen might very well do is a driver's license. Elizabeth II is not forbidden to drive a car without any documents, but still it has — we even found a picture of them. They were issued by the future Queen, then Princess Elizabeth in 1945, when it served as a mechanic and ambulance driver in the Women's auxiliary territorial corps.
Interesting fact: in 1998, the Queen scared of the future king of Saudi Arabia, with the wind swept it in the car. The crown Prince implored the Queen to slow down — he clearly didn't expect this, because in Saudi Arabia women are forbidden to drive.
Speed enforcement
The Queen can afford to exceed the speed limit, but hardly it will be foolishness to such a ripe old age, despite his love for cars. Elizabeth II can still be seen behind the wheel, but only within the boundaries of the property. By the way, her daughter Princess Anne also loves to drive fast, that she even had to pay a £ 400 fine in 2001. After all, not a privilege to observe the speed limit applies only to the Queen.
Payment of taxes
The Queen is not obliged to pay taxes, but nevertheless, since 1992, she voluntarily pays tax on the property, although at a minimal rate. But the father of Elizabeth II, George VI, in contrast, argued that the monarchs were completely exempt from paying any taxes.
The obligation to answer before the court
Queen of the United Kingdom jurisdiction, it is impossible to open a criminal case, to invite to court as a witness and especially to send to prison. It is believed that "the monarch is not capable of bad thoughts and actions", which in theory gives the Queen the ability to do anything. However, imagine that in our days is almost impossible.
The ban on the use of swans as food
Technically the Queen owns all the wild swans and dolphins in British waters. To hunt these beautiful creatures and have them legally banned, but if Elizabeth II wanted to taste the stuffed Swan, she could to do it. Fortunately for the birds and the defenders of wildlife, swans are not part of the Royal diet.
The law on freedom of information
The law on freedom of information in the UK States that citizens have the right to request information from public authorities and they are obliged to provide this information if available. But this provision does not apply to the Queen and her family — all their cases are private in nature.
