Suspended!

[pyat]

The Governor General decided to suspend Parliament till January, so that the PM can try with a new budget. BOO! BOO! Down with outmoded royalist trappings! Death to the Aristos! Treason! Riot! Revolt! Anti-democracy! Everyone storm the Winter Palace and stand about on tables, waving bits of paper! Down with the GG!

Y'know, I know this isn't ACTUALLY going to happen (for a lot of reasons), but it would be the coolest thing to watch from down here if when this lifts they do the no-confidence vote, form a new government, then immediately go for the 'nuke everything' option: Declare a republic and invest the GG's powers in a popularly elected someone-or-other.

She'd veto the declaration. :)

See, this is why I said it'd be fun to watch!

That requires a referendum, the support of the senate, and I *think* the support of most if not all of the provinces.
