Original Note:
There is no law requiring that the Monarch acts only on the advice of the Prime Minister, this is recent custom only. The monarch retains the power to summon, dissolve & prorogue parliament; to grant royal assent to bills passed by parliament; to appoint & dismiss ministers. https://ucl.ac.uk/constitution-unit/sites/constitution_unit/files/198_reforming_the_prerogative.pdf
