it's the Russians etc
So who do you think would be the best candidate for PM?
JRM.
He looks like a time traveler.
he doesn't want it
I don't want Boris
Why not? (I don't know the guy)
The main reasoning for not liking Boris
he's not a Conservative
I'm Left
I can see a right winger
he is not
it is possible
PMs aren't elected are they? Are they just a majority leader or w/e?
yus
So you're forever fucked because good luck getting a leader the people want
no
it doesn't work that way
populism is nice
The entire UK electoral system is fucked
How can a party who came 3rd with nearly 4 million votes not have a single elected MP
Well e had 1 but he left
it's because you guys don't have a proportionate voting system
Pretty much. First past the post kills any real opposition to the main 2
and it doesn't benefit either the tories or labour to do electoral reform
It's pretty clear the MSM is only attacking Musk because he admitted he doesn't like them.
He was their hero before that.
I never understood the British "Alliance" System
Or just the fact you don't vote for your PMs
they voted for the politicians, who then point to a prime minister. Depending on the country and system, negative or positive parliamentarism then keeps or deposes that prime minister. It's pretty common way for things to work in constitutional monarchies, afaik.
the head of state isn't voted for either
Its silly. Because in a sense the PM isn't elected.
And if your party chooses to ally with another, to "Form a Government" it means only one of their leaders will be in charge
I don't see why that is silly, though
Not the one you voted for
Technically, the US could be doing it this way right now, and vice versa
That would be the dumbest thing in the US, as it would trump the Seperation of Powers
It would be Congress deciding the President
@Goblin_Slayer_Floki No, I meant the fact that we vote for a president
