Another unelected Prime Minister 'would be unacceptable'
Gordon Brown's decision to stand down as Labour leader means Britain may end up with two unelected prime ministers in a row, highlighting a significant flaw in Britain's constitution.

The Labour Party faced criticism in 2007 when Mr Brown was installed as Tony Blair's successor without any sort of vote after no other candidate challenged him for the leadership.

This was despite Mr Blair having pledged to the electorate that he would serve a full third term.

This time, if Labour and the Liberal Democrats form a coalition, Labour's electoral college will effectively decide who is Britain's next prime minister after Mr Brown stands down.

Only Labour MPs, MEPs, party members and members of affiliated organisations are eligible to vote, leaving millions of ordinary voters disfranchised. The winner would take up the post of prime minister without having had to win a general election.

It highlights a deficiency in Britain's constitution, which contains no mechanism to force an unelected prime minister to hold a general election to gain the electorate's approval.

Last night William Hague, the shadow foreign secretary, said it would be "unacceptable" to the majority of people in Britain if the country had another unelected Prime Minister.

During the election campaign, the Conservative leader David Cameron insisted that Prime Ministers who take office in the middle of a parliamentary term should be required to secure their own mandate by holding a General Election within six months and not through a "stitched up deal".

The Tory plans would need the amending of the Septennial Act 1715, which requires that elections are held at least every five years.

Throughout the five-week long general election campaign, Mr Brown was asked on several occasions how long he intended to serve as Prime Minister.

He insisted that he would serve the full term if re-elected.


"I will be standing for the next five years," said Mr Brown in an interview last month.
