How is the chief Rabbi not a decider here? This is his job, he is presumably qualified and, if he has a shaila, he may ask it. Presumably, Q&A will be private and not available for exposure on dailynews.

I have not heard of gedolei yisroel asking people to blindly follow them. I am currently re-reading Chofetz Chaim’s letters, and he tries to patiently convince people of the things he is asking them to do. Maybe, you meant that others accuse you of blindly follow.
As to this case, I might think twice of the British Chief Rabbi tells _me_ to attend the coronation, but here it is his decision and his position. You may want to go and learn with someone halochos malchus, but people posting negative opinions about a duly appointed representative of Jewish kehilla sound like poshut apikoiresim, or l’tzad zechut, amei haaertz.
