The question, rephrased: imagine if the King were just flouting his organic duties, not replying to emails, etc. Do you think - given the setup of the Ziu right now - that, if you agreed with the Government parties that the King needed to be fired, you could get together a 2/3 majority for that? Or - are too many people now filling LCC seats who would be "GOD SAVE THE KING, it's his God-given right to do nothing, he's doing nothing to teach you horrible traitors a lesson, we support him"?

If 1/3 of both houses of the Ziu will not remove the King for anything but being dead or in jail (and they'd probably make excuses if he were in jail), then surely OrgLaw II.4 is a dead letter.

The king actually does not seem to reply to emails. I've sent several that have gone unanswered. It also has been 42 days since he even logged into Witt.

I've been waiting 254 days for an email reply from the King on something.

I have the King's phone number, he generally responds to texts with the day. I'll do so upon request.

... this is the kind of thing that I wish to draw the Opposition Leader's attention to, btw. I think he would agree with the Government that this is unacceptable negligence from the Head of State. But if we were to pull our own lever of accountability - impeachment/dethronal - most of the LCC voters would scream blue murder and might be able to block it in the Ziu, because they're so backed into the idea of monarchism that they reject any accountability.

Let's recap who the LCC MCs are:
-Sir Cresti, who even the FreeDems generally consider sensible
-My dad, who I know takes what I have to to say into consideration
-Txosue and Brenier, neither of whom are a part of the RUMP old guard and both of whom spent extensive time in other non-RUMP parties.

I'm happy to be backed by the traditional RUMP voters, but they aren't our only constituency. Holding true to the founding principle of the party (that we are an broad alliance rather than bound to a specific set of policies), I will never require any of our MCs to support removing the current King from office, but there may come a day when I feel I have no choice but to support that measure myself (I've been close before). At that time it may or may not be the case that enough of the LCC MCs agree with me.
