YOU'RE SUBJECTS BECAUSE OF THE ROYAL PREROGATIVES
(shake head, poor American)
Try again, silly boy.....
• Powers relating to the legislature, e.g. - the summoning and proroguing of parliament; the granting of royal assent to bills; legislating by Order in Council (such as for overseas territories) or by letters patent; creating schemes for conferring benefits upon citizens where Parliament appropriates the necessary finance.
• Powers relating to the judicial system, e.g. - various functions carried out through the Attorney General and the Lord Advocate; pardoning of convicted offenders or remitting or reducing sentences;
• Powers relating to foreign affairs, e.g. – the power to acquire additional territory; the making of treaties (although Parliament has had a veto over treaty-making powers in some circumstances since 201022), the declaration of war and the making of peace; restraining aliens from entering the UK and the issue of passports.
• Powers relating to the armed forces e.g. – the Sovereign is commander in chief of the armed forces of the Crown and the control, organisation and disposition of the armed forces are within the prerogative.
• Appointments and honours, e.g. – appointment of ministers, judges and many other holders of public office; creation of peers and conferring of honours and decorations.
• Immunities and privileges, e.g. – statutes do not bind the Crown unless expressly stated (usually by the formulation “this Act binds the Crown” or similar)
• The prerogative in times of emergency, e.g. – requisitioning of ships or seizure of neutral property in a time of war.
• Miscellaneous prerogatives - various other historic powers relating to such things as royal charters, mining precious metals, coinage, franchises for markets, treasure trove, printing, guardianship of infants.
This should not be considered an exhaustive list.
