The Royal Prerogative
The three pillars of the British Constitution are:
- Monarchy
- Aristocracy
- Democracy
Monarchy is the supreme head of state and is the holder of the royal prerogative (Cannon Law) The King (Rex) or Queen (Regina) is hereditary and is head over every aspect of the British constitution. The monarchy governs through its two branches. The monarch is also the executive, who defines the royal prerogative or canon law.
The Monarchs parliamentary house (The Houses of Parliament) houses both the Houses of Lords (The Aristocracy) and the House of Commons (The Democracy)
The House of Lords is the aristocratic branch which has many functionalities, which include the high court. They are the upper house which analyses the democratic bills (white paper) to make sure they adhere to constitutional protocols before they are approved executively by the reigning king or queen, on the day of the state opening of parliament.
The House of Commons represents the commoners of Great Britain in the name of their king or queen. The House of ‘commoners’ is the democratic house, which functions by the members of parliament, as the debating chamber. The MPs are not commoners in today’s sense of the word, though they function under the democratic balance of His Majesty’s government and His Majesty’s opposition who are democratically elected in the many shires to represent their constituencies in the name of the crown. They operate in the House of Commons (the debating chamber) under the ministerial code, which is the gentlemanly and legal conduct of the members in the lower house.
The Lower house is seen as the most important house by the British common man, as it is there to represent them, in the name of the king or queen, using the statutes codes of parliament, which are those laws approved by the executive, after the debate (under the ministerial code) When occasionally the crowns parliamentary MPs do not adhere to the ministerial code of the king's parliament, they can be expelled from the house of commons, by having the whip removed.
As Magna Carter was the democracy before the restoration period, the lower house now
defines, when the parliamentary procedure is in session (under the United Nations
auspices) The House of Commons, is there to define British democracy, for the
remit of the king’s realm under the royal prerogative, which as many see,
define a unique aspect of the constitutional monarchic double word.
