Queen and country it's the only way, sod the Parliament they only pay us and the top man changes every 4 or 5 years if they don't get a second term of office

The Sovereign, same as in Canada, or anywhere else with a monarchy.
Legally, the Queen IS the country - you can see this in the coat of arms. The Queen's, and the country's are identical.

think about it. if somebody swore an oath to the government they'd have to redo it after every election. hardly practical.
