Even without her it would run exactly as it does now. And you can imagine how much corruption would creep in, lots of contracts going out to...

Why does no one ever mention how much money it would cost to do the change? Sawing off crowns from badges is easy but but Parliment would change and all books and documents would have to be rewritten. The price would be astronamical!
