About this book

Does the United Kingdom's constitution sufficiently protect its democracy from a rogue prime minister?

In light of the resurgence of the far Right across Europe and some of the rhetoric of the 2024 General Election, which carried whiffs of political authoritarianism, Could It Happen Here? explores the possible consequences of a British prime minister refusing to leave office. Mapping out the processes that might occur after such an eventuality, the responsibilities of key players in the United Kingdom's democratic system, and the integrity of that system after years of stress, Peter Hennessy and Andrew Blick analyze the United Kingdom's "unwritten" constitution and provide a crucial recommendation for protecting and strengthening the resilience of its parliamentary democracy.
