Her life must be as boring as sh**In the words of Frankie Boyle, "How does the queen know if she's on holiday? She doesn't <expletive>ing do anything." And just to help Nar a bit, the English Queen does have some powers, but she elects not to exercise them. The only thing she really does is something involving a transition from one government to the next.So why the hell do these silly englishmen still bother with a queen ? It seems like an useless relic of the past. Tourism, I suppose. There's a fair amount of income from tourists going to see Buckhingham palace and so forth. I suppose it gives them some sense of national identity as well, in the same way the US seem to feel about their flag.
