	Her Majesty's Government - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Her Majesty's Government, or when the sovereign is male, His Majesty's Government, abbreviated HMG, is the formal title used by the Government of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and the governments of some other kingdoms where executive authority is theoretically vested in the monarch and exercised through his or her ministers.
		Today, however, most Commonwealth governments have now reverted to the form "Government of...", and it is today mainly in the United Kingdom that the titles "Her Majesty's Government", "Her Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom" or "Her Britannic Majesty's Government", the last in dealings with foreign states can be found in official use.
		The acronym HMG is often used by members of the government and their advisers as a convenient short label to describe British Ministers and the senior civil servants or mandarins in Departments of the United Kingdom Government.
