Monarch dispatched private solicitor to secure exemption from transparency law
The Queen successfully lobbied the government to change a draft law in order to conceal her âembarrassingâ private wealth from the public, according to documents discovered by the Guardian.
A series of government memos unearthed in the National Archives reveal that Elizabeth Windsorâs private lawyer put pressure on ministers to alter proposed legislation to prevent her shareholdings from being disclosed to the public.
Following the Queenâs intervention, the government inserted a clause into the law granting itself the power to exempt companies used by âheads of stateâ from new transparency measures.
The arrangement, which was concocted in the 1970s, was used in effect to create a state-backed shell corporation which is understood to have placed a veil of secrecy over the Queenâs private shareholdings and investments until at least 2011.
The true scale of her wealth has never been disclosed, though it has been estimated to run into the hundreds of millions of pounds.
Evidence of the monarchâs lobbying of ministers was uncovered by a Guardian investigation into the royal familyâs use of an arcane parliamentary procedure, known as Queenâs consent, to secretly influence the formation of British laws.
Unlike the better-known procedure of royal assent, a formality that marks the moment when a bill becomes law, Queenâs consent must be sought before legislation can be approved by parliament.
It requires ministers to alert the Queen when legislation might affect either the royal prerogative or the private interests of the crown.
The website of the royal family describes it as âa long established conventionâ and constitutional scholars have tended to regard consent as an opaque but harmless example of the pageantry that surrounds the monarchy.
But documents unearthed in the National Archives, which the Guardian is publishing this week, suggest that the consent process, which gives the Queen and her lawyers advance sight of bills coming into parliament, has enabled her to secretly lobby for legislative changes.
Thomas Adams, a specialist in constitutional law at Oxford University who reviewed the new documents, said they revealed âthe kind of influence over legislation that lobbyists would only dream ofâ. The mere existence of the consent procedure, he said, appeared to have given the monarch âsubstantial influenceâ over draft laws that could affect her.

British monarchists sometimes defend their ridiculous institution by saying that itâs all purely symbolic, that the royal family is just a cultural tradition without any impact on the democratic nature of the British government. The problem with this argument is that itâs false, and there are tons of modern examples where British royalty have successfully lobbied to change the law, often in a harmful way! Anyway, appropriate all of the Queenâs assets

âIn a panel discussion Sunday evening, MSNBC host Mehdi Hasan played a clip of far-right commentator Ben Shapiro, saying that by calling out violence and fascism, Biden was going to cause more violence from fascists. âDid I miss here, or did Ben Shapiro not literally make Bidenâs point clear?â Hasan asked. âDonât call them violent, or theyâll attack you.â The Atlantic writer Adam Serwer agreed, saying that most of the conservatives go on the radio or the streaming channel of their choice to say that Democrats are âcommunist, child molesters who want to destroy the country and also, you know, if youâre mean to us, we will kill you. I mean, I just think itâs not a very persuasive argument.ââ

mormon kids under the age of 18 being told their church is a cult
mormons 18-24 after they go through their endowment ceremony and receive their new name and secret clothing and learn the secret handshakes and passwords and realize everyone around them has been secretly doing this the whole time and now theyre going to be sent away from their family for 2 years where they will literally not be allowed to be alone for 1 second of the day except to go to the bathroom and they have no idea how to get out of what they just got into
one of the only perks of being a mormon woman is that i didnât get my endowment at age 19 and i had a little extra time to mature and be out on my own. thatâs all i needed to make a clean break and i got out at 21 before i wouldve gotten my endowment.Â
wait what? can anyone elaborate on this? because I had no idea this was a thing
basically when youre a mormon kid growing up you realize your church is a little strict but youâre like whatever. i have friends at church because i go to church 6 days a week and everyone around me is affirming that this is the right thing to do and we have special knowledge no one else has otherwise everyone would be like this. so youve gotta go teach them & itâs the greatest thing in the world to be a missionary. also the temple is beautiful and amazing and spiritual and holy and everyone wants to go there. but itâs a secret! :) because itâs holy and sacred
then if youre a boy and u turn 18 theyâre like wow amazing!!! you get to go on a mission and be like all the great men around you!! and now you get to go through the temple! so #blessed!
and then you go through the temple and all the above mentioned SECRET CULTY SHIT happens (EXPLANATION HEREÂ http://mormoncurtain.infymus.com/topic_templeceremonies.html) and youre shipped off to a strange place where everything you eat, wear, go, listen to and do is controlled, and youâre not allowed to talk to your family or friends (except through a once-a-week email) and you literally are being watched by your companion at all. times.Â
some might say âyou can leave at any timeâ but consider that i never went on a mission and i never went through the temple and i still consider leaving the mormon church the hardest thing i ever did. you have no social network outside the church. you are lacking major knowledge and skills. you have to grapple with the fact that you may never see your family again.
Iâm reblogging this again bc I have Thoughts.
Leaving is such an isolating experience. No one inside wants anything to do with you anymore and no one outside understands the scale of messed up that Mormonism is. Like itâs easy to point and laugh at the ridiculousness, but itâs literally a cult. Thereâs so much trauma involved and thereâs trauma in leaving.
People on the outside donât understand how hard it is to leave. I grew up where all my friends were catholic and are no longer religious and theyâre like âwell everyone hates church, you just stop goingâ but Mormonism isnât like that at all. For starters I had to get a lawyer involved to leave and then the ostracization from the entire community that nurtured me growing up was just the cherry on top. Itâs effectively being shunned. Everyone you were forced to call sister and brother growing up no longer wants anything to do with you. And you deserve it, because you shouldnât have fallen for the anti-Mormon lies.
Leaving The Church was the hardest thing I ever did and my family accepts me so Iâm a lucky one. But they still ardently adhere to the institution that hurt me and has resulted in the deaths of people I love. I will never understand.
âThereâs so much trauma involved and thereâs trauma in leaving.â
Itâs easy for people looking in from the outside to forget this. Thank you for the reminder. Can anyone recommend resources for young Mormons looking to explore their options?
Please note: this post will be directly addressed to those hypothetical young Mormons
If you know youâre ready to leave, use quitmormon.com. Itâs run by the guy from reddit who is now famous in exmormon circles for offering absolutely free legal services to anybody who needs help leaving. You can give your church id number if you know it, but itâs not required (I never memorized mine, and I sure wasnât going to ask for it). He takes care of everything. This keeps TSCC (the so-called church) from getting all your latest info and keeps them from hassling you or harassing you. They have to talk to your lawyer instead. Pre 2015, it felt almost impossible to try to leave, but itâs a lot easier now! The years of picketing General Conference to force an excommunication trial are over!
Find a support system. Lean on your friends that have never been mormon, any family members who left, anyone you know who left. Iâm an exmormon happy to answer any questions, and Iâm sure there are plenty others in the notes who would be super willing to be supportive too. Exmormon groups are many and varied now, and itâs best to find the one that vibes for you. Thereâs a subreddit thatâs popular, but I personally used - and I know this sounds weird, since I donât have kids - a forum called Mormonism & More on the site babycenter.com. It was started several years ago by some mormons who had questions they werenât allowed to ask on the normal mormon board (because that board required uplifting, mormon-approved answers at all times). Itâs since shifted to ex-mormons or people who want to leave but canât right now because of family situations. Even though the threads were years old, I spent weeks on that forum, reading about what other people had gone through and how they got through it, and to me, that was super helpful.
Research the culty stuff at your own peril. I liked learning about that stuff for a really long time, because I felt learning about all those secrets (I especially liked learning about the truth of the Book of Abraham) ⊠it helped me feel valid in my choice. It helped me keep in mind that this was something that I had escaped, something that had wanted to hurt me. Missing your abuser doesnât mean you should go back, it means you should keep moving forward. Missing your cult has the same solution. Lots of people fell for the âweâre totally not a cult!â line by TSCC. Some of them will not offer sympathy. If you want to watch the hidden camera videos of endowments and other temple stuff, I would super super recommend you have a trusted friend watch them with you. And bring comfort food. Youâll probably need it.
TSCC put out a series of essays on controversial (read: faith-killing, eye-opening, omg how could I have ever supported the people who did this) issues in mormon history. They are the Orthodox LDS pre-approved responses to a lot of the more incriminating accusations that have been leveled at TSCC over the years. They should be hosted on TSCC website somewhere, and would have been posted around or after 2015. They may reaffirm your faith now that you know TSCCâs defense, but they may push you right out the door. (Or break the shelf? Do Mormons still use the shelf analogy, or is that retired now?)
Lots of mormons become atheists after leaving. Many join mainstream xian churches. Some become witches, some study every religion they can get their hands on, some try to go back and realize all the magic (or holy spirit, if you prefer) is gone. Donât think you have to know right away. Some people throw away or burn all their mormon stuff, some people keep it to show their kids, but again, you donât have to make that decision right away. Some people call TSCC a cult after they leave, myself included, but you donât have to if it makes you uncomfortable or it it doesnât feel true to your experience.
Look up religious trauma syndrome. Itâs real. The pain you will probably feel is real, the grief you will probably feel is real, and in many ways, you may have to mourn the death of what you were always told Life Will Be For You.
And learn that the world is not half as evil as TSCC told you. Your coworkers who drink a beer at the end of the day are not evil or abusive. Your friends who wear sleeveless shirts are not evil or promiscuous. Youâre allowed to wear short shorts! Youâre allowed to drink coffee! Youâre allowed to ask questions in a faith community without being silenced or condemned! Youâre allowed to not want kids! Thereâs a lot of unlearning here.
TLDR? You have options. You have freedom. Find nonmormon friends who will support you. Be kind to yourself.
People joke about Mormons but this is the first time Iâve seen anything at all directed towards people who need to get out.
I had a high school friend turned college roommate who left, moved 4 hrs away, and I had to lie to people who showed up repeatedly that he wasnât home. Thatâs just the smallest outside perspective of this. They kept coming.
It is a cult. It operates by manipulating people. My aunt, who also left, converted from Catholicism when she was a single mother in her 20s who needed help. The church gave her a network of tangible support and got her through a vulnerable, scary time in her lifeâand used that
