There is no Deputy or Vice Prime Minister because we have a cabinet system of Government and not a Presidential system. There is no requirement for it in law because the PM is seen as first among equals. It is why I never got people saying I could not vote for Labour because of Corbyn. Well unless he is your MP you are not you voting for Corbyn you are voting for the party. The last deputy PM was Nick Clegg when we were run by a coalition and he was part of the minority party that helped the Torys win and get into Government.
These guys in right now are doing a terrible job because they sacked all the sensible Tory MPs who have years of experience actually doing proper jobs and so we are now in the state we are in. Even on it's worst day Italy never had this amount of deaths in a day and we have not hit peak yet.
