The number of terms is unlimited. Prime Ministers are not elected directly by the British public. They are chosen by the party that wins government, which is based on winning the most seats in the lower house in parliament.

∙ 12y agoIreland does not have a prime minister. The head of a government in Ireland is known as a Taoiseach. A general election is held at least every 5 years in Ireland. After that a Taoiseach is elected. So a Taoiseach can have a 5 year term. However a Taoiseach can be re-elected and so a Taoiseach can stay in power for a lot longer if elected for several terms. One had 16 years in a row in office.
