{{Cabinet table start|hiderefcol=y}}
The '''Former Unionist Colony of Bromley''' or simply '''Bromley''', is a unitary state with devolution that is governed within the framework of a parliamentary democracy, in which the Prime Minister, currently Victor Thatching-Moss, as of 1 February 2025, is head of both government and state. The Prime Minister is mainly deputised by the Secretary to the Prime Minister, currently Ross Widdecombe as of 3 February 2025. The current government was elected at the 2025 General Election, and is currently led by a coalition of the Bromlavian Conservatives and For Bromley. The coalition hold 69 seats, a majority in the National Assembly.

The Bromlavian political system uses First Past The Post at all elections, and elects the person with the most votes from first preference. The Prime Minister has the right to call an election at any time whether that is for the whole nation or a specific region (usually done for a precedent or a majority), and can call one when resigning (Usually this is done after a precedent was set that no more than two consecutive Prime Ministers of the same party can resign without calling a General Election).

Bromlavian politics is usually dominated by the two main parties, the Bromlavian Conservatives (centre-right) and Bromlavian Labour Party (centre-left), where another party has been in main power only at three elections since 1917. However, both major parties may rely on other minor parties for coalition support in order to gain a majority, for example, the current government. Coalition governments have happened at four elections: 2025 (CON-FBR), 2022 (LPR-LAB-IBK-GRE), 2021 (LAB-LIB-BLV-COM) and 1997 (LAB-GRE-BPA). The National Assembly was solely governed by the Bromlavian Conservatives between 1854 and 1910 along with 1921 and 1957 until the rise of the Bromlavian Labour Party, with a Communist government being in power between 1917 and 1920 and the Ingerish Unionist Party being in government from Bromley's recognition as a democracy in 1731 until 1854. The far-right and fascist Bromley Defence Party governed a dictatorship between 1965 and 1974 where elections resumed and the Citizen's Interest Group won a landslide and led for three years until their dispersion. In 2022, whilst Left Progression didn't win the most seats, they formed a coalition government.

Bromlavian political opinions and results have been classed as being volatile by professional analysts, due to large swings which can occur, most notably in the 2022, 2014, 2006, 1989, 1977, 1974 and 1965 elections, where large gains or losses occurred, in some cases, nearly all seats in the country where supermajorities occurred. This is thought to be because of the fast moving nature of Bromlavian politics and internal disputes, notably with the autonomous region of [[Barkenfry]].

{{Cabinet table minister
MPs elect a speaker for the National Assembly, who serves a four year term and can be re-elected an unlimited number of times. The speaker who is elected must be an incumbent MP for a constituency and once elected, must resign their seat to focus efforts on their roles as a speaker. The candidate who receives the second highest amount of votes becomes the deputy speaker - with MPs only allowed to vote for one person. The speaker sits as an indepdendent politician and is not included as an MP within the National Assembly. It is common for the speaker to be elected from the main governing party due to majority vote within the National Assembly. The current Speaker is Robert Boland, former Labour MP for Lindow, and the Deputy Speaker is Mally Corderton, former Conservative MP for Fallholt.

== Previous Election ==
The last election was held on 30 January 2025. The 2025 Bromlavian General Election led to a hung assembly for the third consecutive time, with the Bromlavian Conservatives being the largest party but without a governing majority. This led to four days of negotiations between the Bromlavian Conservatives and For Bromley.

===Parties===
For many years, there have been two main parties in Bromley - the centre-right Conservatives and centre-Left Labour. However, recently, voting patterns have shifted to support minor parties, particularly those on the far end of the spectrum.

The Former Unionist Colony of Bromley or simply Bromley, is a unitary state with devolution that is governed within the framework of a parliamentary democracy, in which the Prime Minister, currently Victor Thatching-Moss, as of 1 February 2025, is head of both government and state. The Prime Minister is mainly deputised by the Secretary to the Prime Minister, currently Ross Widdecombe as of 3 February 2025. The current government was elected at the 2025 General Election, and is currently led by a coalition of the Bromlavian Conservatives and For Bromley. The coalition hold 69 seats, a majority in the National Assembly.

The Bromlavian political system uses First Past The Post at all elections, and elects the person with the most votes from first preference. The Prime Minister has the right to call an election at any time whether that is for the whole nation or a specific region (usually done for a precedent or a majority), and can call one when resigning (Usually this is done after a precedent was set that no more than two consecutive Prime Ministers of the same party can resign without calling a General Election).

Bromlavian politics is usually dominated by the two main parties, the Bromlavian Conservatives (centre-right) and Bromlavian Labour Party (centre-left), where another party has been in main power only at three elections since 1917. However, both major parties may rely on other minor parties for coalition support in order to gain a majority, for example, the current government. Coalition governments have happened at four elections: 2025 (CON-FBR), 2022 (LPR-LAB-IBK-GRE), 2021 (LAB-LIB-BLV-COM) and 1997 (LAB-GRE-BPA). The National Assembly was solely governed by the Bromlavian Conservatives between 1854 and 1910 along with 1921 and 1957 until the rise of the Bromlavian Labour Party, with a Communist government being in power between 1917 and 1920 and the Ingerish Unionist Party being in government from Bromley's recognition as a democracy in 1731 until 1854. The far-right and fascist Bromley Defence Party governed a dictatorship between 1965 and 1974 where elections resumed and the Citizen's Interest Group won a landslide and led for three years until their dispersion. In 2022, whilst Left Progression didn't win the most seats, they formed a coalition government.

Bromlavian political opinions and results have been classed as being volatile by professional analysts, due to large swings which can occur, most notably in the 2022, 2014, 2006, 1989, 1977, 1974 and 1965 elections, where large gains or losses occurred, in some cases, nearly all seats in the country where supermajorities occurred. This is thought to be because of the fast moving nature of Bromlavian politics and internal disputes, notably with the autonomous region of Barkenfry.

MPs elect a speaker for the National Assembly, who serves a four year term and can be re-elected an unlimited number of times. The speaker who is elected must be an incumbent MP for a constituency and once elected, must resign their seat to focus efforts on their roles as a speaker. The candidate who receives the second highest amount of votes becomes the deputy speaker - with MPs only allowed to vote for one person. The speaker sits as an indepdendent politician and is not included as an MP within the National Assembly. It is common for the speaker to be elected from the main governing party due to majority vote within the National Assembly. The current Speaker is Robert Boland, former Labour MP for Lindow, and the Deputy Speaker is Mally Corderton, former Conservative MP for Fallholt.

Previous Election

The last election was held on 30 January 2025. The 2025 Bromlavian General Election led to a hung assembly for the third consecutive time, with the Bromlavian Conservatives being the largest party but without a governing majority. This led to four days of negotiations between the Bromlavian Conservatives and For Bromley.
