The King can probably still fly a jet fighter, helicopters and other aircraft, his licence to do so could have lapsed due to his age, but he probably still has the skills; ditto as a Navigator and a Ship’s Captain.
He also qualified as a Commando.

As the Greens and other Republicans in our various Parliaments have sworn allegiance to the Monarch, then when they actively engage in public speech against the Monarch then they no longer adhere to their Oath of Allegiance and should immediately resign from Parliament.
To not do so is tantamount to perjury.

Which would mean that Australia could never become a Republic.

Do you think that's a good arrangement, Bobby?

A foreigner, born into the position, living on the other side of the world, making those sorts of decisions?

1971. Probably not the current 5th gen fighters. He certainly has no warrant to command a flight op.

The Earl Mountbatten of Burma had such ability but was not in the role of monarch / prince of the throne.

allegiance to the Monarch,

' true allegiance to His Majesty King Charles, according to law'.

Parliament is the law which binds the monarch. While in power, he receives parliament's votes including by Greens who are part of the royal assent process. Speaking is not refusal to comply.

Sure.

So let's get rid of Charles, make the Governor General our Head of State, and give them the power to do that.

Yeah?

Possibly, but are you in favour of perjury and perjurers?
Should people who perjure themselves to get into Parliament be allowed to stay there?
We recently had MsP removed from Parliament because of Dual Citizenship, which in some cases was unknown to the offender at the time of taking the Oath, such cannot be said of Republicans who deliberately break the law.
So why are these criminals not prosecuted?

Are you in favour of criminals being allowed to govern Australia?
