Is being in the British Royal Family working? They receive a ton of taxpayer dollars.
They are the titular heads of State of the United Kingdom.
They are LEGALLY empowered to unseat the prime minister and dismiss parlaiment, and call for a reformation of government. I expect that they do their homework in regards to that issue.
This is the lawful government currently in place in the UK.
I fail to understand your snark in regards to the lawful governance of Great Britain.
