Template:Short description Template:Main other Template:Use dmy dates Template:Use British English Template:Multiple image The prime minister of the United Kingdom is the principal minister of the crown of His Majesty's Government, and the head of the British Cabinet.

There is no specific date for when the office of prime minister first appeared, as the role was not created but rather evolved over time through a merger of duties.Template:Sfn The term was regularly, if informally, used by Robert Walpole by the 1730s.[1] It was used in the House of Commons as early as 1805,Template:Sfn and it was certainly in parliamentary use by the 1880s,Template:Sfnm although did not become the official title until 1905, when Arthur Balfour was prime minister.

Historians generally consider Robert Walpole, who led the government of the Kingdom of Great Britain for over twenty years from 1721,Template:Sfnm to be the first prime minister. Walpole is also the longest-serving British prime minister by this definition.Template:Sfn The first prime minister of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland was William Pitt the Younger at its creation on 1 January 1801.Template:Sfnm The first to use the title in an official act was Benjamin Disraeli who signed the 1878 Treaty of Berlin as "Prime Minister of Her Britannic Majesty".Template:Sfn

In 1905, the post of prime minister was officially given recognition in the order of precedence,Template:Sfn with the incumbent Henry Campbell-Bannerman the first officially referred to as "prime minister". The first prime minister of the current United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland upon its creation in 1922 (when 26 Irish counties seceded and created the Irish Free State) was Andrew Bonar Law,Template:Sfn although the country was not renamed officially until 1927, when Stanley Baldwin was the serving prime minister.Template:Sfn

The current prime minister is Keir Starmer, who assumed the office on 5 July 2024.

Before the Kingdom of Great Britain

Before the Union of England and Scotland in 1707, the Treasury of England was led by the Lord High Treasurer.Template:Sfn By the late Tudor period, the Lord High Treasurer was regarded as one of the Great Officers of State,Template:Sfn and was often (though not always) the dominant figure in government: Edward Seymour, 1st Duke of Somerset (lord high treasurer, 1547–1549),Template:Sfn served as lord protector to his young nephew King Edward VI;Template:Sfn William Cecil, 1st Baron Burghley (lord high treasurer, 1572–1598),Template:Sfn was the dominant minister to Queen Elizabeth I;Template:Sfn Burghley's son Robert Cecil, 1st Earl of Salisbury, succeeded his father as Chief Minister to Elizabeth (1598–1603) and was eventually appointed by King James I as lord high treasurer (1608–1612).Template:Sfn

By the late Stuart period, the Treasury was often run not by a single individual (i.e., the lord high treasurer) but by a commission of lords of the Treasury,Template:Sfn led by the first lord of the Treasury. The last lords high treasurer, Sidney Godolphin, 1st Earl of Godolphin (1702–1710) and Robert Harley, 1st Earl of Oxford (1711–1714),Template:Sfnm ran the government of Queen Anne.Template:Sfn

From 1707 to 1721

Following the succession of George I in 1714, the arrangement of a commission of lords of the Treasury (as opposed to a single lord high treasurer) became permanent.Template:Sfn For the next three years, the government was headed by Charles Townshend, 2nd Viscount Townshend, who was appointed Secretary of State for the Northern Department.Template:Sfn Subsequently, Lords Stanhope and Sunderland ran the government jointly,Template:Sfnm with Stanhope managing foreign affairs and Sunderland domestic.Template:Sfnm Stanhope died in February 1721 and Sunderland resigned two months later;Template:Sfnm Townshend and Robert Walpole were then invited to form the next government.Template:Sfnm From that point, the holder of the Template:Em of first lord also usually (albeit unofficially) held the status of prime minister. It was not until the Edwardian era that the title Template:Em was constitutionally recognised.Template:Sfn The prime minister still holds the office of first lord by constitutional convention,Template:Sfn the only exceptions being the Earl of Chatham and the Marquess of Salisbury.Template:Sfnm

Disputed prime ministers

Due to the gradual evolution of the post of prime minister, the title is applied to early prime ministers only retrospectively;Template:Sfn this has sometimes given rise to academic dispute. William Pulteney, 1st Earl of Bath, and James Waldegrave, 2nd Earl Waldegrave, are sometimes listed as prime ministers.Template:Sfn Bath was invited to form a ministry by George II when Henry Pelham resigned in 1746,Template:Sfn as was Waldegrave in 1757 after the dismissal of William Pitt the Elder,Template:Sfn who dominated the affairs of government during the Seven Years' War. Neither was able to command sufficient parliamentary support to form a government; Bath stepped down after two daysTemplate:Sfn and Waldegrave after four.Template:Sfn Modern academic consensus does not consider either man to have held office as prime minister;Template:SfnTemplate:Not in source they are therefore listed separately.
