She can dissolve Parliament, not only in the UK but in any Commonwealth country, and did it in Australia under the recommendation of the governor general, who is her representative in those countries.

Originally posted by r5a the most amazing part of the jian story is the fact that he sat down in a board room, with a bunch of high ranking CBC execs and showed them a sex tape. WTF. everyone is in suits watching a homemade sex tape. these guys sign and decide if you get a pay check or not, how the FUCK can you sit in the same room with them showing that.. "uhh why is she crying jian?" "ITS OK ITS BDSM GUYS" *screams in background* "yeah I think we've seen enough"

It really speaks to how arrogant and narcissistic he is...smug delusional prick.

Oh, that. Well, the queen only does that when someone responsible for the parliament asks her to, but you can hardly say it's her choice. To my knowledge, that's how parliamentary constitutional monarchies work - in Denmark, for instance, the prime minister can ask for snap elections directly to the Queen.

As for your deadlock, there's much more than the parliamentarism versus presidentialism debate. I'd say being a two-party system is probably more of a problem there, because even in hung parliaments you can create coalitions. Likewise, here in Brazil (where we've got way more parties in congress), it's hard to have such problems because no single party can outnumber all others, so a deadlock could easily be solved after a few rounds of negotiation.

But then, I'm not a political scientist

The most fucked up thing about Asia, is that sexual assault is more than too common.

Goodeegeegoo.

These motherfuckers are brutal. Every day, a rape story to make your head spin. Usually work related.

Nou isn't a rapist if it is work related.
