I meant to say it is not entirely ceremonial, there is a bit more to it. There are serious reserve powers which require a person of maturity and sound judgment.
It also requires that this person of sound judgement and maturity is never ever voted for!
That is why our system as it stands is safe , because of those reserve powers mentioned.
GG and political parties can never be politically connected , someone special needs to be the GG , but even then we make mistakes, thats life.
We have a safe system I 'd like it left that way, and I don't really care much about the Royal family except for the brilliant history behind it. I love history .
