The decision to dismiss Prime Minister Whitlam and appoint a care-taker prime minister until elections could be held was taken by the governor general, John Kerr in his role as the Australian Head of State – not by the Queen of England. The only consultation Kerr made with Buckingham Palace was to enquire in the weeks before the dismissal as to what action the queen would take if Whitlam notified her that the G.G. no longer enjoyed his confidence; her reply was that, in accordance with established protocol, she would follow the advice of the prime minister on all things; if the G.G. no longer had the confidence of the prime minister then he would be dismissed. In short, if Whitlam had realised that Kerr was no longer ‘his man’, it would have been Kerr who would have been gone, not Whitlam.
The other examples you have provided are the same; they are decisions taken by the governor or Governor Generals in their constitutional roles, not by the Queen of England.
The Queen of England would struggle to do such, mainly due to not existing.
