It’s purely ceremonial now they are independent in everyway that actually matters.

But yes you still need to swear allegiance and your parliament is the crowns parliament but it’s just like with anything. The vast majority of the country either like it or dont like it but not enough to kick up a fuss.

They’ll probably go fully independent eventually but for now it really doesn’t affect anyone in their day to day lives.
