MTG999 sorry you’re talking out of your rear on this. To think King George would encourage or in fact support a military takeover is madness. I can't see any high-ranking officer. Mount batten was touted for a takeover in the 1970s however I don't think so at 1940.
If you think the Royal Navy is going to mutiny then I suggest read a history book.
Why should the military take over the country and form a "temporary" military government? All they need to do is talk to MPs and get Chamberlain kicked out. Now possibly Edward if he stays on as King and is manipulated however its suicide for the monarchy and the military. I mean lets get this clear what do you expect this military to do? What if the miners stop digging is the British Army prepared to open fire to get them back down? I think not.
Britain is not a country with a history of military invention in domestic politics.
Some times Brooke hated Churchill however he didn't organise a firing squad did he?
