I'm pretty sure the UK prime minister has to get permissions / votes, to take a shit. He has power to pressure for votes, but now real power to decide anything. He is a semi-president, not on scale with ours at all.
In short, he is a fall guy when things go wrong so the crown doesn't have to deal with the bullshit, that's why they 'allowed' that position to happen.
Ours has true power, even before Bush added more.
Sorry if my UK understanding is a bit off, dumb Americans and all.
