Original Note:
The Monarch of the United Kingdom DOES have the power to dissolve parliament. This is why the Prime Minister must ask for a dissolution. The last time it was used was 1831 by King William IV. https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/the-king-and-the-dissolution-of-parliament-for-a-general-election/ https://www.milnerslaw.co.uk/could-king-charles-iii-dissolve-parliament/
