Yes.

The usual Army of Civil Servants who do most of the day to day running at any time.
Actually, I am.
was there any evidence that the country was being run ?

But seriously folks
During the seventies 1973-4, Nixon was spending up to 90% of his time discussing Watergate in the US and how to get out of it. The US didnt stop being run. In fact people noticed at the time - that the Federal Govt hadnt fallen apart but that things WENT on....Kissinger eg and US foreign policy in the ME ( when it had one, that is )
It's the Illuminati !
The governement remains until officially replaced, even if they lose their seats.
As I understand things, Parliament shut in the middle of April and all MPs lost their seats. So basically the country has been 'ticking over' without a Government. After the election the previous government retakes charge until/if a new government is formed.
not quite Sweaty, Parliament and government are two different things

As one legislator commented
the House of Commons is one great talking shop ...

and when the talking stops like around now,
nothing else is affected
