Under the Parliamentary Oaths Act 1866, members of both Houses of Parliament are required to take an Oath of Allegiance [ to the Monarchy & any successors ] upon taking their seat in Parliament, after a general election, or by-election, and after the death of the monarch. Until the oath or affirmation is taken, an MP may not receive a salary, take their seat, speak in debates or vote.

Should elected representatives of the people not be swearing allegiance to those they represent - the People?
