This is why the prime minister isnt a woman much.

Its cos lots of politicians are already guys so they arent super nice and then also women have babies so get busy we think.

Question 3 from Benji, Boris, Noel and Holly.

Basically the prime minister can lose their job if their party (like Greens) stops being in power or their party decides they want someone else in charge. Also the King can fire them.

Can anyone make a political party?

The answer is yes, but you need 500 supporters and a set of rules and ideas.
