I assume, however, that the POrime Minister and House of Commons need not take that oath?They don't, but Members of Parliament have to swear an Oath of Allegiance. This, however, hasn't been written in such a way as to be exclusively acceptable to members of the CofE since the late 1820s. In practice, only Sinn Fein members refuse to swear (or affirm) it, so it's little more than a tradition. |
