who can exercise varying degrees of power over the Parliaments of states that no-one would dare deny are democracies. Wasn't Australia a democracy back in 1975? That's when the Queen's representative here sacked the democratically elected leader of this country. I don't think that a constitutional monarchy with a monarch who has some power over its Parliament counts that state out as being a democracy...
