What does it mean to be the prime minister of the United Kingdom?

There has to be a general election in Britain at least every 5 years, so that is a longest single term. A Prime Minister can be re-elected as often as their party wants them and they remain in power, so there is no real maximum time they can serve as such. In modern times Margaret Thatcher was Prime Minister from May 1979 to November 1990. There have been longer serving ones. Robert Banks Jenkinson was Prime Minister from June 1812 to April 1827.
