Cevap
The Monarch follows the convention of inviting the leader of the party that commands a majority in the House of Commons to form a government.
The principle that the Monarch 'reigns but does not rule' ensures that the Sovereign acts as a neutral Head of State. In practice, this means the Monarch does not make political decisions, such as choosing a Prime Minister based on personal views. Instead, they follow the constitutional convention of appointing the leader of the political party that holds a majority in the House of Commons, ensuring the government is formed democratically.
