ALTRAV,

This is a forum of social and political debate -
not of dogma. You're in the wrong place.
Start your own blog - where you can expect people
just to sit there and agree with you.

OLDRAVE
I absolutely agree and throw your walking frame anywhere you like , grin and win. Thanks for the google , how's your grasp of Queen's English these days?

The monarch and viceroy do not, however, participate in the legislative process save for the granting of Royal Assent by the Governor-General. Further, the constitution outlines that the Governor-General alone is responsible for summoning, proroguing, and dissolving parliament, .As the monarch and viceroy, by convention, cannot enter the House of Representatives, ; Black Rod, after he knocks on the doors of the lower house that have been slammed closed on him to symbolise the barring of the monarch from the House of Representatives.

Foxy, it is not only MY opinion but that of The Forum as well, that possibly you may be on the wrong forum.
I have searched through the various pages and headings for this forum and nowhere did I find the word 'debate'.
I did however find the words 'On Line Opinion's article discussion area' at the top of the page.
As I said, 'I don't debate'.
If you recall, that's why I suggested Quora, with it's BS BN policy I know it is right up your alley.
As for dogma, I'll take that and wear it with pride because we wogs are proud people, personally I don't wear fools, so I find it wearisome having to go over and over the same ground trying to convince neanderthals of a truth and not an opinion which I sadly realise this forum is about especially when that opinion is wrong.
Not MY opinion, but Google's.
It's touching to see you care enough about me to give me advice, it's OK, I appreciate it, it just makes you all the more endearing.

NMN yeah, yeah, yeah, put simply the GG works for the Queen.
He has his duties and instructions according to proto-col.
The Queen has over-riding rights, she does not use them because there has been no need.
The Whitlam affair is the closest she came.
Don't confuse current politics with hereditary rights.
The Monarchy goes back hundreds of years and don't forget she does what she does for her people, the monarchy has always looked after it's citizens.
Don't confuse what went on hundreds of years ago with attitudes of today.
This forum is not the place to break it down but suffice to say, even if over simplified, she owns us, she gives her permission for the us to form a govt, the GG works for her, he does not do what the govt, PM , he himself thinks, but does as the Queen instructs.
All this may not be immediately obvious to many, but it is hidden in the history of the Monarchy, dig a little deeper and it will become obvious.

Don't confuse current politics with hereditary rights.
Sir ALTRAV knight and bar, heretic and antiquated,
Don't confuse current politics with hereditary rights.
She owns US of A , makes Trump great and Britain Great.
Don't confuse current politics with hereditary rights.

NMN, sorry, I really would like to understand what you say, but I'm not good with riddles and sarcasm, I'll try, but I know I may as well not even try to read some of your posts, I just don't understand them.
Sorry mate.
