Church of England doesn't extend to all of the UK I guess.
No Church of Wales but there is a Church of Ireland.
Church of Scotland he is considered an ordinary member.
So I would guess that since he is just the Supreme Governor of a church that extends to a small part of the Nation it could technically fall outside a theocracy?

French colonial policy wasn't as well planned as other states. One such policy was to deport prostitutes and criminals to a colony, and it didn't work.
Deporting the French protestants would probably either be a failure or if successful, have a potentially disloyal colony.
