November Constitutional Crisis

On November 25th, the incumbent Prime Minister, Daniel Z, refused to step down as Prime Minister. This led to two days of stand off between the British Futurists and Enterprise.

This occured due to the British Futurists winning the popular vote in the November Election, but did not have a majority of seats in Parliament. During this phase, multiple parties claimed to be the Prime Minister. At this time, in order to clear the confusion Harrison M sought the Queen to affirm him as Prime Minister, this spiralled out of control when the Queen began appointing everyone as Prime Minister, resulting in titles such as "Primer Minister" and "Man-emperor Minister Prime" and "Other Prime Minister". The Queen briefly appointed Ben S as President, coinciding with his formation of the CDPP, making him the first President of the UK (briefly renamed the United Republics of Great Britain and Northern Ireland) and confusing the situation further.

Military backing was also promised to the incumbent Prime Minister, the Queen and Enterprise. Thus the UK was on the precipice of civil war and emergency war cabinets were being called by the British Futurists. Military plans had been drawn up, with unconfirmed reports of nuclear weapons being included in these plans.

Finally, on the 27th of November, Daniel Z stood down as Prime Minister, and the military units stood down as well. Following this event, the Queen had her rights to appoint Prime Ministers curtailed, and all Prime Ministers were mandated to stand down regardless of winning the popular vote.
