While constitutional conventions “are not enforced by the law courts”, this pretty much allows any unelected official to hold the role of Prime Minister.

We need to respect the law, including constitutional conventions.

    I hope you aren’t suggesting we should infringe upon constitutional conventions, to limit any particular political party from coming into power…

    I don’t think that is healthy for the rule of law

      I merely added an example that showed that convention exists longer than your original post implies.
