After Brexit, Great Britain needs a Queen as never before

July 18, 2016

According to The Spectator:

While Brexit has put most people in a stew, the Queen is one person who needn’t worry…

…there are certain jobs in which age is a real asset, jobs in which continuity, experience and wisdom are much more important than energy and competence at running things.

These are jobs (the papacy springs to mind) that rely on moral authority and are often linked to the idea of lifelong sacrifice and service, and the monarchy is one of them. There is something mesmeric, even awesome, about the same individual performing the same routine constitutional functions…year after year.
