On a weird footnote to my previous post; under the present constitution of Australia if Charles ceased to be King of England for some reason he would still be King of Australia and as such could move to Australia and take over the constitutional duties of the Governor General, who is, in effect, his proxy in Australia.
I believe the same probably applies to Canada and about 12 other Commonwealth countries; Antigua and Barbuda, Bahamas, Belize, Grenada, Jamaica, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Saint Lucia, Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, Solomon Islands, Tuvalu
Read Nevil Shute's book "In the Wet". The Queen appointed a Governor General to run the UK and moved to Australia and Canada because of the collapse or democracy in the UK.
Shute didn't believe in "One Man, One Vote", instead he proposed that every person could increase their say in the Government of the Country from 1 vote to 8 votes as a result of the contribution they made to society. The Commonwealth took this policy, the UK didn't, and sank into obscurity.
Hmm.
