David Cameron formed the Cameron ministry after being invited by Queen Elizabeth II to begin a new government following the resignation of the previous Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, Gordon Brown, on 11 May 2010. It is a coalition government, composed of members of both the Conservative Party and the Liberal Democrats. The government's Cabinet is made up of sixteen Conservatives and five Liberal Democrats with eight other Conservatives and one other Liberal Democrat attending cabinet but not members.[1] The Cameron ministry is the first coalition government to have governed the United Kingdom since the Churchill War ministry of the Second World War.
History
For more details on this topic, see Premiership of David Cameron.
The previous Parliament was dissolved on 12 April 2010 in advance of the general election on 6 May. The election resulted in a hung parliament, no single party having an overall majority in the House of Commons, the Conservatives having the most seats but 20 short of a majority.
In the Conservative – Liberal Democrat Coalition Agreement of 11 May 2010, the two parties formed a coalition government.[2][3] The new Parliament met on 18 May for the swearing-in of Peers in the House of Lords and newly elected and returning Members of Parliament in the House of Commons, and the election for the Speakership of the House of Commons. The Queen's Speech on 25 May listed the government's legislative agenda.
The Liberal Democrats have five Cabinet seats including Nick Clegg as Deputy Prime Minister though since the Cabinet and ministerial reshuffle, David Laws, who is a Minister of State is allowed to attend the Cabinet but is not a full member. If a Liberal Democrat minister resigns or is removed from office, another party member must be appointed to the Cabinet.[4] Each cabinet committee has a chair from one party and a deputy chair from the other; there is also a cabinet committee specifically overseeing the operation of the coalition. Both parties' ministers share collective responsibility for the government's positions, although the coalition agreement details several issues in which the parties agree to differ; the Liberal Democrats abstain from voting in such cases. Clegg, as Deputy Prime Minister, takes Prime Minister's Questions (PMQ) when Cameron is unavailable.[4]
While the government's frontbenchers sit together in the House of Commons and the two parties act as a bloc during PMQ,[5] the Liberal Democrat and Conservative backbenchers sit apart and have their own whips,[5] and the two parties still compete in by-elections.
On 4 September 2012, David Cameron reshuffled his cabinet for the first time.[6]
