Actually, QE2 is the Head of State in England. I remember reading Frank Zappa's autobiography. One of the things that stood out was the the fact that he had been owed a substantial sum of cash by the Royal Albert Hall.
--In Short, The Royal Albert Hall Broke a legal contract with Zappa.
Zappa then followed through with litigation against RAH, and after a protracted Period of time, this was (The condensed version of) the Court's decision.
The plaintiff is essentially correct in his complaint against RAH, and the court finds his argument favorable, however, The plaintiff is not a British Subject, who is in essence seeking redress, and compensation indamages from a Royal Institution, therefore the court finds favor in the argument posed by the Royal Albert Hall.
Royal Family???? I could care less about them, because as an American, they are essentially irrelevant to us. However, if I lived in the UK, I would probably hate them much worse than Resident Bush
