% Actually, the Queen has to sign off on any bill passed through Parliament,
% and has the power to veto such bills, similar to the veto powers of POTUS,
% although in practice she doesn't veto things very often.

In fact, the last person to do it was Queen Victoria in
the 1880s.  Something to do with home rule.
