The Tongan King has dismissed the current Prime Minister and dissolved parliament.
Prime Minister Akilisi Pohiva has been under increasing pressure in recent months, especially after he cancelled the Pacific Games which Tonga was to host in 2019.
He's also been accused of nepotism after hiring his son as his personal assistant and of being careless with government money.
King Tupou has ordered new representatives be elected, at elections "to be held no later than 16th November this year".
