Perhaps David Flint will explain this incongruity. He, with David Smith and other Monarchists insist that the Governor General is our Head of State. Why then should the approval of the Queen be sought for this recommendation by our elected Prime Minister?. This decision is important but hardly enough to 'set the world on fire.'
Yet it seems we need to seek the approval of the Queen which indicates that she can approve or can reject the Prime Minister's decision. Why should our Government have to seek the approval of a foreigner who is not elected by the people?
There seems to be some conflict here and it would be good to have it resolved.
Your response David Flint?.
