@iinavpov @davidallengreen Clause 4 of the Dissolution and Calling of Parliament Act 2022: Automatic dissolution of Parliament after five years
"If it has not been dissolved earlier, a Parliament dissolves at the beginning of the day that is the fifth anniversary of the day on which it first met." That would be 17 December 2024.
