Forcing an Election in UK
3 Answers
As our present Labour government is doing such a bad job of running the country how can we, the public, force an election.
I.e. How do we go about it? and what are the rules we would have to follow?
Or is it only the Queen that can dissolve parliament?
From reading so many comments attached to news on line articles it is very clear that so many of the public are really fearful about the incompetence of this Labour government.
It is not only their financial incompetence but all those mad and crazy laws they are proposing in order to subjugate the middle class, also they want details of every child over the age of eleven put on a database that will be able to be accessed by so many different people including anyone working in departments such as the NHS, Social Services, Schools, Local Government - and potentially any pervert working in these places could have access to info about your precious child.
This government is seriously subversive in so many ways and it must be stopped. They want to destroy this country - too many people haven't got a clue what they are up to.
Now Harriet Harman wants to destroy the aspirations of the 'middle classes'.
They are out and out communists.
They are seriously deluded and have to be got rid of and it will only be worse if we have to wait for the next scheduled election is 2010 as they will have done so much more damage by then.
People who think this Labour government cares about this country of ours are wrong.

No, we can't. What do you want? A mass uprising ? Or is that too " communist " for you ? LOL
The only way it can be done is if the government is defeated on a motion of no confidence or by losing the vote on the Queen's Speech or a vote on the finance bill or on some other important piece of legislation proposed in its manifesto.The government then resigns.
Of course,that vote requires a majority of MPs in favour, which is not likely given the number of Labour MPs there are.It has happened, most recently in 1979. Then the Labour government was defeated by 311 to 310 on a motion of no confidence.The result was a consequence of the SNP and some others voting against the government. An election was called. Labour lost.
But, naturally, it is always possible ,in theory, for their constituents or their local party committee to persuade any MP, even a Labour one, to support such a proposed motion.If enough MPs were so persuaded, then the government would fall.
