If it collapses into chaos the King would be within his authority to dismiss it and allow for new elections.

It would have to be extraordinary for that to happen as the monarch has largely remained out of direct political acts for a long time, but it could still happen. Last time was in Australia in the 70s.

Usually they’d just call an election before involving the monarch

Lets face it Starmer is a one-termer if he makes that far. They might decide to kick him out earlier than expected

Even with the huge majority it doesn’t mean anything IMO

The natives will get restless

Politics is fluid

Dont forget their Leftist tax hikes go into effect in the next budget (April 2025) and that will hurt the economy.

Biz groups already saying they’re planning layoffs. What a disaster.

Same old playbook the world over

Would Labor follow the law and go along with such a Royal decree? I think we know the answer to that!
