Someone should tell them about the rarely-enacted Sovereign Defamation Act of 1376 that makes it an offence punishable by being broken on the wheel to publicly accuse the sitting monarch of treason.

I love the comment that “We need to organise anarchy”. Rather like when Willie Whitelaw accused Harold Wilson of “stirring up apathy”.
