Citizens’ activists claim widespread backing for their new initiative, even as the reigning monarch threatens to veto the proposed legislation. The movement argues that public opinion favors reform, citing recent polls and town‑hall meetings that show strong support for the bill’s goals. Opponents point to the king’s constitutional authority to block the measure, warning that a veto could stall progress and deepen political tensions. The debate highlights a clash between popular demand for change and the entrenched power of the monarchy.
Organisers of the citizens' initiative say they have popular support, even though the all-powerful monarch has said he will veto the legislation.
