"The royal prerogative to dissolve Parliament was abrogated by Section 3 of the Fixed-term Parliaments Act 2011."

FUCK

I can't post images

Section 6, subsection 2

USA and UK are very alike in culture

The US's culture was founded on British values, but I would argue has diverged and converged several times. At the moment, its much more corpratist than we are.

images were banned after agora was polluted with pony imagery

"This Act does not affect the way in which the sealing of a proclamation summoning a new Parliament may be authorised; and the sealing of a proclamation to be issued under section 2(7) may be authorised in the same way. "

And subsection 1:

"This Act does not affect Her Majesty’s power to prorogue Parliament."

No, the Supreme Court can though because YOLO.

She hasnt done a damn thing

Yes

Prorogue

Dissolution is different

Her country bleeds and she watches

Summoning a new parliament covers that @Joshu

A parliament must first be dissolved

I think she'll intervene before mass social unrest.

If the country is on the brink of just collapsing, she'll have no other choice.

We won't get mass civil unrest

i dont think mass social unrest will actually happen

That comes from leftists lol

Probably not, but I think that's her breaking point.

i think people are too ground down, worn out, and scared of the police

"As of 2011, Queen Elizabeth II can no longer exercise her power to dissolve parliament. With the Fixed-Term Parliaments Act, a two-thirds vote in the House of Commons must occur to dissolve England’s government before a five-year fixed-term expires."

nah, mostly it'll be remainers crying when we finally leave

"The Queen previously wielded the power to dissolve Parliament and call a general election, but the Fixed-Term Parliaments Act put an end to that in 2011. Now a two-thirds vote in the commons is required to dissolve Parliament before a five-year fixed-term is up."

i bet when they penned the FTPA they never realised it might be used to force a minority government to helplessly sit there trying to ask for an election to happen

No, I bet they honestly knew it. And they probably hoped they were the ones who could bully the gov.

But they'd risk getting beaten so long as there's a chance they'd get a bigger stick.

Its why they're so cavalier about censorship, because they're confident they'll be incharge of it.

Here's the kicker it's very likely that the opposition will take control without a general election

It doesn't occur to them that they'll suffer.

The Lib Dems refuse Corbyn.

Half of his own party refuse him.

Damn you're right Joshu

Been through this, they need everyone

the SNP arnt enough
