The power to dissolve parliament is “perhaps the most important residual prerogative exercised personally by the sovereign, and represents the greatest potential for controversy.”[15] This prerogative is normally exercised at the request of the prime minister, either at his or her discretion or following a motion of no confidence. Constitutional theorists have had differing views as to whether a unilateral dissolution of Parliament would be possible today; Sir Ivor Jennings wrote that a dissolution involves “the acquiescence of ministers”, and as such the monarch could not dissolve Parliament without ministerial consent; “if ministers refuse to give such advice, she can do no more than dismiss them”. A. V. Dicey, however, believed that in certain extreme circumstances the monarch could dissolve Parliament single-handedly, on the condition that “an occasion has arisen on which there is fair reason to suppose that the opinion of the House is not the opinion of the electors … A dissolution is allowable, or necessary, whenever the wishes of the legislature are, or may fairly be presumed to be, different from the wishes of the nation.”
The king should announce an election.
the king should announce the abolishment of the royal family
Why not both?
That would probably create a constitutional crisis in the UK.

Just add it to the list of crises
If only we had a body of people who could change the law on that problem.
Well yes, we’re all aware of the reality of that situation, but wouldn’t it be nice?
That doesn’t sound like it’s ill-defined then.
