Yes, thats exactly why Her Maj has high approval rating; because she doesn't interfere with the Government. HOWEVER I believe if things were to get really bad then it is in Her best interests and duty to provide her subjects with security and therefore would not alow anthing or anybody to hinder or effect this. If a case of some political crisis were to accure I think there would be no better or more experienced person to fix it. For instance in 1974 after the febuary elections; Labour came out with 301 seat, six more than the Tories BUT the Tories won the Majoirty vote. Therefore it was the Queen's Constitutional duty to whip out her emergancy powers and sort the problem out
