Because that ' s what uspez is doing to our comments ? <| sep |> Seems like a bit of a stretch , still interesting though . <| sep |> Enjoy it !

As with everything related to the UK constitution it ' s a bit grey and fuzzy , but yes , the will of Parliament is final on all legal issues , and most things can be legislated . It is currently Parliament ' s will that general elections be held every five years to elect a new Parliament . This was expressed most recently in the Fixedterm Parliaments Act 2011 . If they wanted to they could supersede that with the Thirty Year Parliament Act 2017 and they would be acting within our constitution such as it is . A good example of this happening is the period between 1935 and 1945 , when we didn ' t have a general election because Parliament suspended them . A more realistic scenario would be swapping from FPTP to PR that would be Parliament drastically changing how the will of the people is actually interpreted . Speaking hypothetically , even if Parliament had expressed a preference for making the referendum result binding in the European Union Referendum Act 2015 they could still have overturned the result of the referendum , on the principle that Parliament cannot bind a future Parliament . But we ' re getting into pathological cases here it ' s technically possible but would never happen because people aren ' t idiots . Can parliament ignore the result of a general electionIt ' s worth pointing out that Parliament is dissolved before a general election , and a new Parliament is called after the election . So technically , Parliament can ' t ignore the result of a general election because at that point Parliament doesn ' t exist . That does rather seem like a distinction without a difference , though . Just to complicate matters , the power to dissolve and call Parliaments resides with the monarch not the people , but the last time a monarch tried that we ended up in a civil war . But once called Parliament absolutely has the power to dissolve itself and replace itself with a panel of reality TV judges , or whatever . TLDR The UK constitution is a giant game of .
