Quote:
The Lascelles Principles, which was devised by Sir Alan Lascelles, the private secretary to King George VI, is a convention which grants the Queen the ability to turn down an early election.
This can be done if the Queen can “rely on finding another Prime Minister who could govern for a reasonable period with a working majority in the House of Commons”.
Tory MPs would need to convince her Majesty that they can choose another leader and continue governing without forcing the public to vote early.
Other conditions which need to be met for the Lascelles Principles to be used include the Government being capable of doing its job, and an election being detrimental to the economy.
With inflation rising and expected to hit 11 percent by the end of the year, an argument could be made that a general election right now would distract from tackling the cost of living crisis.
Cabinet Secretary Simon Case told the Public Administration and Constitutional Affairs Committee this week that the Principle will be included in the Cabinet Manual - a document setting out the laws and conventions of the Government’s operations.
It would mark further integration of the ability of the Queen to reject calls for an early election in favour of allowing the Government to continue its work.

Re: Partygate & Beergate discussion
Do we think he might try to stay on even with the rest of the cabinet resigning?

Re: Partygate & Beergate discussion
Deluded Boris clinging on, the parallels between him and Trump are frightening. The ultimate in its not my fault culture. How did the British people get fooled by such an untrustworthy person.

Re: Partygate & Beergate discussion
Speaking of the Queen, she has apparently returned to Windsor. She would usually stay in Sandringham all summer........

Harry Cole@MrHarryCole
NEW: Sources say PM is seeing Cabinet ministers one at a time rather than a being greeted by the whole delegation.
Number of them told Chief they would resign last night or today without movement.
When they did they were invited to No10 by CHH to tell the PM to his face.

Re: Partygate & Beergate discussion
Patel told Johnson to go wow
Matt Dathan
@matt_dathan
EXCLUSIVE:
Priti Patel has sided with the group of Cabinet ministers calling for PM to go
The home secretary - one of Johnson's most loyal supporters - believes there's no way he can continue to govern without the support of his party
She's joined Shapps and Gove NOT Dorries
