Early elections?

[ewx]

[Poll #1042148]

For the avoidance of doubt by "always" I mean "always", i.e. no early elections as well as no late elections. So don't tick both that and any of the early-election options unless you really do think that fundamental constitutional laws should be self-contradictory!

Why do you need a general election after the government loses its majority? You could, for instance, have a new government, with the new majority [or majority coalition] in charge.

Emergencies of the form "half the MPs are dead" could be exceptions to a law against early elections without undermining the general idea.

Why would half the MPs being dead be an emergency? I'm sure the civil servants could plan the celebrations without a government.
