Talk:Dissolution of parliament

message: When is the last time that the Queen/Governour General has dissolved parliament against the wishes of either the Prime Minister or the majority of MPs in the UK, Canada, or Australia? --Mareino (an American) 17:01, 6 January 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The only recent (as in the last century or so) case that I'm aware of is the Australian one in 1975.  Interesting question, though.  It may not have happened in Britain since the 18th century.  Anyone know/is anyone willing to do the research?  --Xyzzyva 12:35, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If the British parliament can only be dissolved five years after its been elected because this is the maximum time parliament can serve, haven't the five years during which parliament served already been served and that thus make the dissolution of parliament completely useless, because parliament has already served?

text:  Although, the main issue with the whole 1975 scenario is that in trying to enforce one Constitutional Convention Kerr trampled on another. Namely that the Governor-General/Sovereign should only refuse advice if the Governor-General/Sovereign could rely on finding another prime minister who could govern for a reasonable period with a working majority in the Lower House. The Lascelles Principles are the one place I know it's been written out explicitly, but there's a general convention for refusing advice / dismissing the PM period in the Westminster system. The Governor-General/Sovereign shouldn't be doing it unless there is an alternative PM with a working majority. Fraser wasn't that.WanukeX (talk) 18:11, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

message: Am I correct in saying that the reference to the Queen in this section is a reference to the Queen of England, Queen Elizabeth? If so, it should be changed to monarch. -144.132.49.114 10:54, 9 April 2007 (UTC)

message: Good day. Can someone add some material regarding the status of ministers/ PM when parliament is dissolved? My understanding is that they have no status once the GG disolves parliamenet, they are simply members of their political parties with no more authority than Joe Citizen. Is this correct. Either way, can the answer be added to the article? Merci, 199.212.20.3 (talk) 17:36, 5 April 2011 (UTC)
