What has the Queen done for England?

Answer 1

1. She made the real transition from an imperial organisation to a free association of countries which shared historic links, democratic interests, culture, economic and military interests. Nowadays, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the UK are everlasting alleys that cooperate in education, economic, military and humanitarian affairs, thanks to the Queen.

2. Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland have had revolutionary and separatist groups, but the Queen started a reunification of the nation since the start of her reign (she gave a national flag to Wales and invested Prince Charles as Prince of Wales through a worldwide ceremony that highlighted welsh tradition; she has embraced scottish lifestyle, for example, spending all her summers there, encouraging scottish tradition as the 9 am bagpipe, walking Scotland as a commoner... She has given the scottish a scottish head of state. In Northern Ireland the Crown is the ultimate symbol of the union, so they remain in the kingdom pretty much for the Queen. She has always denied the possibility of a deep devolution of powers or separation. So, the UK has remained together thanks to the Queen.

3. She has chosen, advised and supervised 12 different administrations during her reign, and none of them has been deficient. So the continuity of an effective government has been guaranteed by the Queen's abide.

4. The Queen has become the paradigmatic head of state with her strong commitment to duty. She has never caused a constitutional crisis and she has executed all her responsibilities as head of all branches of power, step by step, without a single mistake. Even now, at 85, she works as hard as 60 years ago, and all prime ministers end up saying we got very lucky to have her as head of state. She is "an anchor of our time", as Ban Ki Moon said.

5. The Queen is head of more than 500 organisations that work for the benefit of the people of the UK and abroad, which makes her a tremendous force of good and change in the world.

A poll revealed Elizabeth II is considered by the british as one of the greatest britons ever, and constitutionalists as well as common people see her as one of the greatest monarchs the UK has had.
