Have to wonder how the British people feel about going to war for the cause of slavery. The Trent Affair hasn't happened. Britain has no casus belli.

Even with the Trent affair I don't think they'd be very keen on it. I could also list at least a few other reasons why it wouldn't be a good idea as well. Though I'll just wait and see what happens first rofl.

We aren't going to war. We are defending economic interests and acting as a deterrent against war. If the United States attacks us, then we have cause.

I hope my sending negotiators doesn't need an action... Outcast?

Tomato, tomatoe. You are provoking a confrontation with the USA all in the name of cotton easily attainable from other sources, threatening far more significant grain trade with the US and finished goods trade with the Northern States. To add on top, I saw no act of Parliament recognizing the CSA.

You also said that any attack against the Confederacy would be one against you. Once that inevitably happens it doesn't mean your people will be alright with it. Odds are the American fleet will be able to block off the CSA coast first before a British task force arrives.
Edit: Parliament act so much like bored said.

It will be interesting to see how public opinion takes it. That said, I assumed that any actual decisions posted officially by the queen were ratified by parliament. Since obviously she does not have that sort of power on her own.

Might be exceptions with certain situations though. I'm hoping Outcast clears things up soon. The whole situation is very iffy for multiple reasons. It's possible but there would be consequences.

That's what I would assume. Any thing Congress makes for me is going to be signed "Congress" plus that would be a boring way of speaking messages...

Yeah, I was kinda confused that the Queen was named my leader as opposed to the current Prime Minister. Wasn't the majority of the Crown's power gone by this point?

I do believe so... You could start posting your messages as from the Prime Minister?

I think it'll pretty much work the way you think it will most of the time. The main issue with the current situation is the complexity of British intervention in the ACW. The same ultimately goes for France as well.
Also. I have mad skills. That second IC post of mine came from my phone
I think I shall leave Greece as it and wait for the update, I have a diplomatic post planned for the next updated, specifically it will be directed at Great Britian.

Don't freak, if you arent aware theres a small series of islands called the Ionian Islands. They are Greek, but in 1861 they were controlled by the UK. It will basically be the King asking you to peacefully return the territory.
