for anyone wondering, to actually pass the threshold for treason the piddingtonians would have to show some kind of violent intent and storm the military base or something, so it's definitely possible, I just have a funny feeling they wouldn't actually want to wage war with their precious monarch

Seems to me that the practice of “regulation” in Britain boils down to just installing The Right Sort Of Chaps, insiders who know how the game is played and won’t make a fuss, and will just have a quiet chat instead, if anyone gets a bit fast and loose with the rules.
lotta people on here seem to think that now the writing is on the wall for farage that this is somehow the end of reform. we know right wing losers transfer their loyalty very easily, like how so many of them are jumping to the even more right wing parties. so basically nothing will change
