I’m not a Conservative voter or even a fan or Theresa May (though I think she is probably the least-worst option for them right now) but this idea of an unelected Prime Minister just annoys me as we do not have a presidential system.
I support an English assembly/parliament, as do a lot of the major players in the devolved governments. It’s annoyingly been hijacked by far right groups like the EDL.
It really doesn’t matter what you throw at it, our system is not designed to elect a person. People might go into a polling booth and “vote Theresa May” but the MP they get might differ from Theresa May on many policies and vote differently. It’s important, under the current system, to look into your local MP and vote based on their views.
Oh and Donald Trump is due in the UK soon, just to mix things up that little bit more, on top of everything else that is going on. What a time to be alive.
I voted leave, and would again. I just don’t have any personal interest in any of the issues that come from the Remain camp.
For me Brexit is a mess. David Cameron was scared of UKIP, called a referendum and it backfired.
Then in their wisdom the British public kept on voting Conservative, and now we have a government held to ransom by the DUP!
As soon as Brexit was confirmed UKIP should have been put in charge of actioning it so at least it was done properly.
Having Teresa May, a remainer, in charge is just a plain and simple conflict of interest and is never going to work in a million years.
It doesnt matter what side of the fence you sit on, were all screwed and theres nothing we can do about it because we as a nation voted the wrong way again…
Just to add that I don’t disagree with you here - I actually don’t like how our current system works and I think you should be able to vote for a person who will be the Prime Minister.
Of course not, this country is a joke and parliament is just full of bunch of spineless fools just out to look after them selves and their pay/pensions.
