England doesn't have a Governor General- it's Head of state is the ruling monarch, who at present is Queen Elizabeth II, and it's top political figure is the Prime Minister, who is currently David Cameron. The role of a Governor-General was confined to Britain's former colonies, but nowadays the role has been abolished in most of them and in the cases of those who DO retain one, his or her role is mostly just ceremonial.
If a state law, the Governor. If federal law, the President.
This seems to be little more than a "figurehead" position. Given that Australia made its last official step into full independence in 1986, many ask why it is necessary to have Governors in each of the states when they appear to have no role other than purely ceremonial. It is a throwback to the days when each of the states was administered by a governor, but it hardly necessary now.
