I wish I could find the source, but I read Robert Alter note somewhere the he held the KJV prose in high regard. I find that interesting.

Be in total denial all you want, I don't mind. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯The monarch controls nothing
Get real
You do realise that the late Queen Elizabeth's personal rating was around 80% or more throughout her reign? That's the type of rating politicians can only dream ofIf you say so; you can keep telling yourself that. The fact is that monarchies (any and all monarchies, not just what's headed by the monarch from London) are essentially soft forms of slavery, and religion is usually involved in some way.
The monarch has to appoint whoever wins a parliamentary majority PMYes, I'm aware of it & I would imagine that you're aware that not only do British voters not elect the prime minister, but the prime minister even has to be approved by the British monarch.
Personally I don't mind themI'm personally opposed to this presence of American military air bases on British soil (or anywhere else around the world, for that matter) - and even if I wasn't personally opposed
Re: Chatham house, etc:Yeah, and co-operation for what purpose?
The thing with that would be that we'd lose our independence and be absorbed into the much larger USAWould you oppose having the UK get annexed by the US and turned into a republic or becoming part of one (meaning no more titles of nobility)?
I think that all the tiny island nations that the UK controls are a very tiny and almost insignificant part of the worldas in British Overseas Territories, Commonwealth realms, and Commonwealth of Nations? Do you have any idea how many countries, territories & islands that is?
Where would the personnel for a privately owned standing army come from?I'm for removing US military bases from foreign countries & in fact I'm for dismantling the US military and replacing it with privately owned & operated security services to deal with the same things when appropriate.
I was kind of joking thereIt would be shameful if you desire imperial worldwide conquest.
You said that the people of my nation want to take over the worldWell - this is quite a triggered reaction: I wonder why (well, not really).
