President of England (Long Live The Republic)

The President of the Republic of England, often shortened to President of England is the head of state of the Republic of England and the head of the executive branch. He or she is directly elected by the people. The current President is Gwendolen Eastwood.

As the head of state in a semi-presidential system, he or she does not report to the Parliament but appoints the Prime Minister, who is the head of government and leader of the cabinet of ministers. The President is realistically forced to name a Prime Minister who can command the confidence of Parliament, as the Parliament can dismiss the Prime Minister by a vote of no-confidence.
