The linked article by Mahendra Bahal reflects a major bill regarding the health sector in the United Kingdoms. The bill not only seems to have a great deal of importance in the Health Sector, but also in the political as most people, even those that would benefit from the bill, oppose it fiercely. The college of General Practitioners even sent a letter to the Prime Minister declaring their outright opposition.
The Prime Minister in the United Kingdoms has received some troubles in passing laws as of late and could be taken as an ineffective prime minister. Certainly this opposition from his intended beneficiaries couldn't help his chances at staying in office at all.
The UK legal system is very interesting to me as a U.S. System. The Parliamentary System based upon previous rulings and traditions rather than formally written laws such as the U.S. constitution is very versatile to say the least. This versatility even allows for the easy replacements of Prime Ministers at any time should public support diminish and the Minister proves to be ineffective. This is easily contrasted with the strict 4 year terms of the presidency and 8 year total cap on years in office.
So, these recent developments could indicate a possible loss of support for the Prime Minister. This would of course lead to the possibility of new elections to replace the current one. It will be interesting to see how all this will play out. What will the Prime Minister do to keep his claim in office? How will his enemies respond to him?
