1) юр. король не несёт ответственности (за политику кабинета при конституционной монархии)That the king can do no wrong is a necessary and fundamental principle of the English Constitution. (Sir W. Blackstone, ‘Commentaries on the Laws of England’, HBQ) — Король не несет ответственности за политику кабинета. Это важнейший, неотъемлемый принцип английской конституции.

(Kenk) — Знаменитости и люди высокопоставленные живут, как правило, на виду. что ж, "королям все дозволено". Какая беда, если будут говорить о его дружбе с оперными певицами?
