The Australian Kingdom

I write concerning the encroachment of republicanism in this, our great southern Kingdom of Australia.
Although it is true that the parliaments of Australia are corporations with business numbers, which have, despite the overwhelming rejection of it by the ordinary people of Australia, continued to pursue republicanism with an arrogant and irresponsible disregard for our splendid Australia traditions, especially our Monarchy and our flag, and have usurped most of the viceregal authority in practice, we remain a Kingdom still. We are no republic, and the parliament has no power to force us to become one, for the Monarchy of Australia predates the parliaments, having been established here on the very first Australia Day in AD 1788, while the Governor Generalcy of the entire nation, including New Zealand, was established in AD 1842 with the appointment of Sir Charles Fiztroy, by Queen Victoria, as Governor of New South Wales and first Governor General of Australia, 59 years before the national parliament even existed!
We are led to believe that the Queen relies upon the authority of parliament, whereas in truth it is the parliament which relies safely upon the Royal Authority of the Queen, who alone holds the Sovereighty of Australia. The parliament’s authority exists because previous parliaments were strong enough to usurp the Royal rule while avoiding popular revolt against this usurpation by maintaining a pretence of acting with the approval of the Monarch, which approval was extorted, or, in plain language, stolen. The Monarch alone represents her people, and an attack on her is an attack on us, for she is our Queen, by birth, not chosen by any man or group, our natural leader. If we support her, she can discipline the parliaments, and restore our ancient freedoms.
Today is her 85th birthday, and in the 59th year of her reign, she is as popular as ever, if not more so, as the most recent polls clearly show, and as we all knew all along. As Aussies, we like to “have a dig” here and there, but when it’s serious, we are, and always have been, with our Kings and Queens to the very end. In loyalty, Australia has always been “true blue”, and was known famously as the faithful dominion of the Empire, a truly honourable distinction.
Regarding the currency, Great Britain does not continue with the original, as the old British pound and the old Australian pound were separate currencies within the Empire, and from AD 1966 both were decimalised to facilitate the establishment of a centralised world economy by computerisation (the Imperial system does not agree with competence, which are decimally programmed), and thus undermine the integrity of national currencies everywhere.
We are indeed being conned by an international ideology, which is really the enemy of all nations, but, for as long as we stay true to our Queen, our flag, and our ancient heritage, we remain the Australian Kingdom. God save the Queen!

Steven Harrison,
Killarney
