Great point! I would like to add that obedience could also be about obedience to laws, or collective values. Or, it could be obedience or respect for an authority. Take the Charter of Rights and freedoms, for example. Obedience to the authority of that document ensures that the rights of the individual are respected, as well as the laws governing those rights and freedoms. Without obedience and respect for the document, and to the courts and laws of the land, a society falls apart

Now, I'm speaking philosophically, this couldn't happen to the UK. I'm just presenting another perspective! Thank you for your point, and have a lovely day! Best wishes.
