After the Free Radical Party secured a landslide General Election victory, its leader, George Ronson MP was appointed as Prime Minister of the United Kingdom by the King. In his victory address to the nation outside number 10 Downing Street George said that he would "shake things up and clean the bog of Westminster" and that "as the British constitution does not really exist anyway" he had "a mandate from the people to do what he liked to get stuff done." George has proposed that the following constitutional changes be delivered in the first ten days of being in office: 1. To refuse any future audience (meeting) with the King and to transfer all the King's constitutional (prerogative) powers permanently to himself. 2. To prorogue (temporarily suspend) Parliament for one calendar year. 3. To appoint his wife, Sophia, to the role of Deputy Prime Minister, and his former business associates and senior military personnel to all other ministerial positions. 4. To abolish the Cabinet and demand that all Ministers report to him (George) as Prime Minister directly. With reference to relevant constitutional conventions advise George Ronson MP PM as to the implications of his proposed constitutional changes.
