No data? I understand Gajagojo: You know.I.won't open it What is your point? Well, let me help you... Can the Queen sack the Prime Minister and has a monarch fired one before?
BY EMILY STEDMAN LAST UPDATED OCTOBER 20, 2022
Amidst the lockdown partygate scandal, members of the public are wondering if the Queen can sack Prime Minister Boris Johnson.
It's been a tough new year for the Tories. The first two months of 2022 saw the Conservative government deal with the after-effects of the illegal lockdown parties scandal. The findings were later published in the Sue Gray report(opens in new tab) in late May - which investigated one such party which took place just days before Prince Philip's funeral(opens in new tab). Further drama arose in July when several ministers resigned(opens in new tab) from Boris Johnson's government.
The fall-out from the ongoing events has led to much criticism and growing anger from voters nationwide. And much like many have also asked can the monarch call a general election(opens in new tab), people are also keen to know what the Queen's powers are when it comes to dismissing a Prime Minister.
Can the Queen sack the Prime Minister?
The Queen is responsible for appointing Prime Ministers, and whilst Queen Elizabeth II does have the power to sack the Prime Minister, it is highly unlikely that she would ever exercise it. This is because Her Majesty's role in government is mostly a ceremonial one. And as Head of State, she also has to appear politically neutral and not seen to be favouring one party over another.
"The Queen’s powers rest on convention," Vernon Bogdanor, professor of government at King’s College London told the Guardian. "She’s got quite wide legal powers but in a constitutional monarchy she "shouldn’t use them" except in very extreme circumstances, which I don’t think these would be.
"During her reign she has acted throughout on the advice of her prime minister and it has proved a good rule. If parliament is unhappy with anything, it is for parliament to take the relevant actions."
The only occasion where the Queen is likely to sack a prime minister is if they refuse to leave after losing a "Vote of No Confidence" in the Commons. This being said, there would have to be a clear successor with a majority backing in parliament who would be ready to take over power. Her Majesty is unlikely to fire someone without a valid replacement lined up.
Who was the last British monarch to sack a British prime minister?
It is incredibly rare for a British monarch to sack the Prime Minister. In fact, the last example of this happening was in 1834 - when King William IV dismissed Lord Melbourne. The King asked Sir Robert Peel to form a new government following worries around Lord Melbourne's government. Known as the Whig administration, they were considered popular, extremist and a threat to the monarchy.
Though Peel did form a new government, he found passing legislation hard and resigned in 1835. King William VI then had no other choice but to re-instate Lord Melbourne as the prime minister.
How else can a UK Prime Minister be removed?
If a Prime Minister does not resign, then a Vote of Confidence against the leader could take place. This is an alternative which could see the head of government removed. In order to trigger this in the current political climate, Conservative MPs would have to submit letters to the party's 1922 committee chairman. And if the total of letters received adds up to 15% of all sitting Tory MPs (in this case 54) then a Vote of No Confidence takes place.
The concept is part of the Fixed Term Parliaments Act 2011. Once a no confidence motion is approved, all elected MPs from all parties in the Commons must come together to vote for or against the sitting government. With the exact wording being: "That this House has no confidence in Her Majesty's Government."
A majority vote is needed to pass the no confidence motion. If the government wins then business resumes as normal. But if the vote is lost, two things can happen:
An alternative government takes over power and the Prime Minister resigns. They then have 14 days to win a new Vote of Confidence.
If no alternative is available, then the PM can remain and has 14 days to win another Vote of Confidence motion. If they win this then things return to normal. However, a second loss triggers a general election which is held at least 7 weeks after the vote.
Talk of Conservative MPs filing for a Vote of No Confidence has bubbled since Boris Johnson confirmed he was in attendance at a party in May 2021. This was when the country was in lockdown and subjected to strict Covid restrictions.
In late January, Sky News reported that several Tory MPs have submitted letters following the admission. Though it's not known how many have - with the 1922 committee chairman Graham Brady only knowing the exact number.
When was the last vote of no confidence? The last Vote of No Confidence in the UK took place on January 16, 2019. However it was unsuccessful with then Prime Minister Theresa May winning a majority of 200 votes. She resigned four months later. This was because the 1922 committee chairman warned that another vote was on the horizon.

You're rather showing your level of ignorance and infancy than facts. The British highest monarch (Queen/King) has the absolute power to do and undo just anything but they don't exercise it unless there's a very serious problem. They can even sack the Prime Minister in extreme situations.

I don't think king Charles will even get involved in such thing because of his image oboy, e for better you Google some things before you type here. Who installed the Prime minister? Their system of Government is not like your own, there, the government runs the country for the Monarchs while here is completely the opposite. The King is greater than the Prime minister but do not get involved directly in politics. Abeg, make Google and Wikipedia help you small. |

Lol... The innovation is not for the benefit of the public but for the benefit of their company. If a hacker hacks just 40 google accounts, it puts Google database at risk and not you the user and they've experimented with their own backend security technology that passkeys are safer and easier for them to quickly detect a hacker and stop him or her. So, for now, hackers may not have the tech to bypass passkeys and that's where these companies are coming out strong Abolodje: Nice innovation but not beyond hacking still |

Even oil companies don't require degree in skilled jobs. Go to Dubai, Canada, Britain, US with a good skill and see how fast you'll get a job while a Ph.D holder is still searching.

Seefinish: Tinubu s touts should allow Emeifele be. Killings are talking place almost everyday across the country and this set of jokers don't see them. It is Emeifele they see Truth be told. Emefiele is part of it. If you're in business you'll understand how this current CBN has murdered Nigeria economy. It all started with his ban on Nigerian made crypto currency pinkoin and all his ban on foreign forex, and selling of USD at higher price via aboki black market. Hunger has killed a lot of people already. His anti human policies caused rise to many criminal activities because of the lack of currency flow. People thought the redesign policy was actually for good but it was his agenda to seize money from the public, and just within February and March, lots of businesses went down, people died of hunger and many people became broke as the only way to collect their own money was to buy it at outrageous prices. Then price of things skyrocketed, in fact, make I no talk again. Emefiele deserves to be sacked |

Fake story turmacs: My boyfriends dog
We recently started dating about three months ago. I've visited his house quite a lot but his dog still doesn't like me. I expected after spending that long time with the dog, she would have gotten used to me but no, that dog still holds resentments towards me.
Anytime I come over, it starts barking uncontrollably. We can't even get intimate with peace of mind, it keeps barking at the doorstep while we are having sex in his room.
Until we're done and he (my boyfriend) goes out to attend to her. The dog does not allow me go near him anytime it's around always sitting next to him and growling anytime I'm close by.
I've suggested to him to kill the dog or sell it so i can have peace of mind but he said he loves the dog so much that the dog was his girlfriend before I came into his life as he had not been in any relationship before(I'm his first girl)...
I don't know what to do and I don't want to say I'm beginning to get tired of the relationship but I'm not happy. Had it been the kind of dog self was all this parlour dog or small dogs, I wouldn't have been complaining, but it's all this very big dogs. I think he said the specie is a boa bull or something...
Please I need advice... |
