You know those General Election campiagns that start the year before the election, and seem to go on forever? There's none of that in the Whoniverse, because there's never an organised General Election. Prime Ministers never serve a full term, they just lose the job (and possibly their lives) in alien invasions.
2006 Unnamed PM, probably Tony Blair, killed by the Slitheen along with the whole cabinet. Succeeded by Harriet Jones, apparently just because she took charge of things.
2007 Harriet Jones loses her position because she looks tired. Succeeded by unknown.
2008 Unknown PM succeeded by Harold Saxon in undisclosed circumstances, despite him not being a member of any political party. (This does appear to be a General Election, but is clearly a very unusual one.)
2008 Harold Saxon killed by Lucy Saxon during the Toclafane invasion. Succeeded by Brian Green.
2009 Brian Green implicated in 456 event. Presumably succeeded by whoever's PM in Miracle Day, and how long are they going to last now?
