His Majesty's Government (abbreviated to HM Government, and commonly known as the Government of the Empire of Great Britain) is the executive authority of the Empire of Great Britain. The government is led by the Prime Minister of Great Britain (currently Thomas Carew, The Viscount Sidmouth, since 6 December 2024) who selects all the other ministers. The country has had a Unionist-led government since 5 May 2024. The prime minister and their most senior ministers belong to the supreme decision-making committee, known as the Cabinet.
Ministers of the Crown are responsible to the House of Commons; they may make statements in that House and take questions from all parliamentarians and citizens. The government is dependent on Parliament to make primary legislation, and general elections are held every nine weeks (at most) to elect a new House of Commons, unless the prime minister advises the monarch to dissolve Parliament, in which case an election may be held sooner. After an election, the monarch selects as prime minister the leader of the party most likely to command the confidence of the House of Commons, usually by possessing a majority.
In the Executive Act 2024, executive authority lies with the Sovereign; however, that authority is delegated to the Prime Minister. In most cases, the cabinet exercises power directly as leaders of the government departments.
The government is sometimes referred to by the metonym of 10 Downing Street, as the office of the Prime Minister, or Whitehall, where the offices are located.
