>I'm King, and by english law I can't be tried for any crime. This tribunal is completely and totally illegitimate and absent of any sort of authority. In fact, by trying me, you are hurting english liberties more than you are protecting them.
How do you rebuke him? Keep in mind you have to make your government look legitimage

    The king of England was always subject to the law. Same as in most European countries.

          The British law you fartbrain
          The sovereign is deemed the "fount of justice"; although the monarch does not personally rule in judicial cases, judicial functions are performed in his or her name. For instance, prosecutions are brought on the sovereign's behalf, and courts derive their authority from the Crown. The common law holds that the sovereign "can do no wrong", and so cannot be prosecuted for criminal offences. The Crown Proceedings Act 1947 allows civil lawsuits against the Crown in its public capacity (that is, lawsuits against the government), but not lawsuits against the monarch personally. The sovereign exercises the "prerogative of mercy", which is used to pardon convicted offenders or reduce sentences.[11][14]

            The sovereign is personally immune from criminal prosecution or arrest, as well as from civil actions, and their property is not subject to execution or foreclosure. The Crown, however, as distinct from the sovereign, can be the subject of proceedings for tort and contract since 1947.[29]

            There are more than 160 laws granting express immunity to the sovereign or their property in various respects. For example, the sovereign is exempt from anti-discrimination legislation and other workers' rights, health and safety, or pensions laws, as well as numerous taxes, and environmental inspectors cannot enter the sovereign's property without permission.[30]

            She can't do anything without approval from Parliament, and she can't prosecute someone who hasn't broken any law.

            That's irrelevant

            It's entirely relevant. The king isn't going to personally come over and murder all his opponents. What matters is the powers he has as head of state, and those are the powers King Charles abused.

            Anon, this is a legal trial. A king cannot be put on a legal trial, as per the law. Meaning that the tribunal is overthrowing the government by doing so. But the tribunal did not state they were a new government. They were claiming they were the legitimate power behind the english throne, that what they were doing was legal, and that they could try a king. This is where the issue lied, why the trial of Charles was so messy, and why the english republic was so frought with rebellion and strife, they had no legitimacy as a government

      Except for the Prussian king, and the French king and the Austrian emperor, and the tsar, and the Swedish king...

      Wait a minute, that look like a pattern to me...

    Why? Cromwell didn't. He had to overthrow parliment to hold the trial and the majority of comissioners involved refused to serve.

    He disobeyed the laws of God by accepting the sacred anointment and the responsibilities that come with it, and then being a tyrant and a murderer.

    English custom (Richard II, Henry VI, Edward V) is to execute incompetent kings without trial. If that is your preference, so be it.

    If the king cannot be tried for a crime, why have a king?
