There is no separate executive branch. There is what amounts to the house of lords, the supreme court and the house of commons. The members of the house of lords are drawn from existing noble houses, the supreme court adjudicates the law and comes from professional judges out in the land. The members of the house of commons arise from peasants selected by random lottery. The house of commons has one power and one power only – they appoint the members of the house of lords and the supreme court. They have to select members of existing noble houses for the house of lords, but they can punish noble houses by selecting inbred retards from that family for the position and they often do this. So it is possible to find drooling imbeciles and violent lunatics among the halls of power.</p></blockquote><p></p>
