Why do people in England think that there is such a thing since 1707 as the Queen or King of England?
Are you referring to the Act of Union 1707 between England and Scotland, forming Great Britain? If so, the monarchs since then have been the King/Queen of England, just as they have been the King/Queen of Scotland - England and Scotland did not cease to exist when the statute came into effect. This is the equivalent of our current Queen, Elizabeth II, being the Queen of Great Britain and of, among others, Australia and Canada. Another example would be to consider the Queen as the Queen of Devon and of Nottinghamshire, because both Devon and Nottinghamshire are in Great Britain (it's just that we don't tend to refer to the monarchy on that scale).

What does the queen England do?
There has not been a Queen of England since 1701 - she is the Queen of the United Kingdom (of Great Britain and Northern Ireland). The Queen reigns but does not rule. The Queen represents the country, its traditions and values, and is in charge of things like the Order of Precedence, which don't effect the running of the country. She also chooses the Prime Minister, but since Parliament has to agree to this, this is a mere formality and the leader of the ruling party is always appointed. Members of the Government swear loyalty to the Crown but she has no real power in the Government.
