        I'm assuming this goes back to some bullshit about how saying a monarch died is besmirching the legacy of people who were born gooder and as such it is no proper thing to do

        this is a country that bases it's internal tax haven on "time immemorial" because nobody could produce any evidence as to why it's gotta be like that, but it is like that, so it obviously it has to be like that.
