I've been studying, and I think I finally figured out how British legislation gets passed. It involves the Groom of the Stool. Boy you Brits have a complicated system of government. But as far as I can tell, the legislative process is this:

1) Your parliament fashions a bill and it's placed in a stack beside Elizabeth's throne (the porcelain one).

2) When her Majestic bowels move, the Groom of the Stool takes the bill from the stack and shows it to Elizabeth.

3) Elizabeth either shakes her head negatorily or says, "Yes, we are pleased."

At that point, the Groom of the Stool ceremoniously applies the legislation. Ass-scent received, all is well. Is that the gist of it?
