Re: All those No.10 lockdown parties
The monarch isn’t above the law - we had a civil war over that question. Ours is a constitutional monarchy, which in practice is a delicate and arcane interweaving of parliament and crown. MPs swear allegiance to the Queen, but when she comes to formally open each parliamentary session, her representative (Black Rod) has the door slammed in his face.
It is of course absolutely inconceivable that she would do anything that would risk her ending up in court.
