монархия
Британцы внезапно выяснили, что живут в монархии, а не в конституционной монархии, и королева с сыночком регулярно получают проекты законов на рассмотрение с правом вето, и иногда требуют изменений законов, а иногда вето накладывают, тайком от публики. Выяснили случайно, потому что некий немолодой провинциальный нотариус пошел в аспирантуру и решил написать диссертацию об устройстве государства. Послал запрос в правительство, с вопросами, те отвечать отказались, через полтора года раскололись.
Какой закон это право регулирует мне осталось неясно - это в прочитанных мной статьях почему то не обсуждается. Список всех изменений в проекты законов, сделанных по требованиям монархов, правительство раскрывать отказывается - говорят, слишком много и дорого перечислять. Наверное, деревья берегут.

Whitehall papers prepared by Cabinet Office lawyers show that overall at least 39 bills have been subject to the most senior royals' little-known power to consent to or block new laws. They also reveal the power has been used to torpedo proposed legislation relating to decisions about the country going to war.[...]
The new laws that were required to receive the seal of approval from the Queen or Prince Charles cover issues from higher education and paternity pay to identity cards and child maintenance.
In one instance the Queen completely vetoed the Military Actions Against Iraq Bill in 1999, a private member's bill that sought to transfer the power to authorise military strikes against Iraq from the monarch to parliament.
She was even asked to consent to the Civil Partnership Act 2004 because it contained a declaration about the validity of a civil partnership that would bind her.
In the pamphlet, the Parliamentary Counsel warns civil servants that if consent is not forthcoming there is a risk "a major plank of the bill must be removed"[...]
The Cabinet Office fought against the publication of the 30-page internal guidance in a 15-month freedom of information dispute. It refused a request to release the papers from Kirkhope, a notary public who wanted to use them in his graduate studies at Plymouth University.
