Will King Charles be forced to Dismiss PM, Sir Kier Starmer?

Post by clive of payia »

Despite Tony Blair’s best efforts, the UK monarch theoretically still retains the power to dismiss a prime minister but risks triggering a constitutional crisis from the extreme political Left and the anti-monarchists, thus making it an option of absolute last resort. So is the UK in a insufficiently parlous state for King Charles to be petitioned by the public to summon Sir Kier Starmer and inform him that he no longer has the King’s or the public support and should either resign and allow the Labour Party to elect a new leader or call a general election.

They had a general election and Labour won. You may not like it but they won. Deal with it. The left had to put up with Boris et al. Now the right have to put up with Starmer.

Clive,

Sorry for the late reply, but I have only just seen your post.

As Dominic rightly says, Labour won the election, and I fully accept the election result. The trouble is that they won by convincing people to vote for them, with what we now know, to be a load of lies.

So in answer to your question, in a ideal world, yes, but it would be far better for Starmer to step down, as he, and his cabinet, are not fit for purpose.
