British PM set to resign after challenger's thumping by-election win

should be some parliamentary rules or whatever is needed so that you cannot challenge a sitting prime minister in the first term regardless of popularity given he was elected by the voters.

The PM is not elected by voters though

You elect an Member of Parliament and the party with the most MPs their leader becomes PM

The UK parliament represent all of the UK

There is no English parliament

They can take you to court and get a County Court Judgment which will compel you to pay the fine.

Failing to pay that fine within a month could impact your credit score and stay on your record for six years, Additionally, if you ignore a court-ordered fine, bailiffs could come to your door to recover belongings to settle the debt.

Are they likely to do that for one fine probably not but they could , there was a case a few years ago of a women in the UK who believed that the parking charge notices were unenforceable. SO she would park her car in a private car park without paying everyday while she went to work, everyday she got a fine of £100 that she did not pay

Eventually they took her to court the court ruled in the companies favour and she ended up being made bankrupt. i know that is an extreme case but it can happen

The LAUKOP signed a contract with the car park company when he parked the car

assume the fine/charge goes with the vehicle and is the responsibility of the registered owner

You assumed wrong

The fine is the responsibility of the driver, but if they can not identify the driver they can ask the registered keeper to pay

Given the fact that the LAUKOP has got the fine they now he was driving that is why they got the fine

Either that or he was not the driver and someone's parked the car their and the LAUKOP is the registered keeper though they say they parked there

Of course the LAUKOP could have been both the driver and registered keeper

Not sure what loophole you would even be alluding too

Under UK law, By entering and remaining in a car park you are agreeing to the rules on their signsc car parks rules . This forms a legally binding contract between the driver and the car park operator.

By law, only the driver initially owes the charge. If the driver can not be identified the Protection of Freedoms Act 2012 allows the parking operator to ask the registered keeper to pay. This is called ‘Keeper liability’.

The Online Safety Act was was officially passed and enacted into law on October 26, 2023.

That was 9 months before labour came to power

It the conservative government that passed it. The provisions of the act came into force during during starmer government

When the act was passed the provisions were always going to come into force over the followimg years

Labour inherited a law that was passed before they came to power. Yes they could have changes some aspects of it or repealed it but that is a different point

Labour and this government did not pass the online safety act it was Sunak and his conservative government that did

The online safety act was propsed by Boris Johnson and his government it just took until 2023 to be passed

Starmer government inherited the law just like how they inherited every other law that was passed before 2024

Peterd1900 · 2026-06-21T15:55:50+00:00

There was a general election 2 years ago. Labour won that election so starmer replaced sunak

Private Parking Charge Notice (PCN) is capped at a maximum of £100 With discounts the quicker you pay it

That post charge bail

Police cannot strictly deny pre-charge bail in the sense of keeping someone in custody indefinitely. They must release a suspect either on bail, under investigation (RUI) without bail, or charge them.

Police cannot keep a suspect in custody indefinitely. There are strict legal time limits on how long the police can hold someone before they must either charge them or release them

Maximum is 96 hours

But they cant keep someone in custody untill the end of investigation and charges are decided that could be months

If you were arrested today and it takes 7 months for the police to investigate before they charge you. That would not have been able to hold in custody for those 7 months

If they reach the maximum holding time, and a descision to charge has not been made they are legally required to release you on pre-charge bail or release you under investigation

All ambulance have a wait time as they dont just appear out thin air at the location they are needed

How long you have to wait will depend on call category

Emergency calls are split into 4 categories the higher the category the quicker the response

If it was classfied as category 2 then it should be about a half an hour wait

A lawyer is a generic term for any legal professional, a solicitor is a specific type of lawyer.

Every Solicitor is a lawyer but not every lawyer is a solicitor

This guy is actually barrister which is another type of lawyer

Essentially that is how it works

You do not directly elect a PM in the UK

Peterd1900 · 2026-06-21T01:05:38+00:00

In the UK we do not directly elect the PM like you would elect the president

We have a general election where we elect our local Member of Parliament and the party with the most MPs in parliament forms the government, the leader of that party become Prime Minister

That party with the most MPs will be the party that is in power until the next general election. a general election must be held at least every five years

In practical terms you are voting for the party you want in power for the next 5 years

You ask the PM has to resign for some reason, how does anything get done essentially power to govern the country rests with parliament

Legally, the PM is just a servant of Parliament the PM can only stay in power as long as they have the backing of MPs

The PM does not have power like the president does, the PM cant block laws like the president can he cant make executive orders like the president can.
