Liz Truss

[The Future’s Blue!]

It’s called FPTP.

Where did we vote for Truss?

Another stain of a tory , sick of all of them

CPAC is full of garbage people, it's no wonder they had a skank who couldn't outlast a head of lettuce speaking there.

 

[LesBleuMiserable]

It’s a total farce.

Having to choose between an anti semite conspiracy loon, a corrupt arsehole who sent dick pics to underage girls, and a terrorist sympathising con artist.

Given what the speaker of the House of Commons did, the Speaker’s family connections, the Labour party’s treachery, the Tory party suspending an islamaphobe, past Tory members on sexual offences, all three would fit in perfectly at Westminster.

We don't vote for Prime Ministers or leaders of political parties unless you are a member of said party.

When a Government is elected to govern, IT is the one that delegates policy, and amongst their number they choose who to lead the party/Government. They then become the representative minister of said party or the 'prime' minister, if in Government and Leader of the Opposition if they lead the party with the second highest number of representatives. Parliament is Sovereign, not the Prime Minister, which is why we vote on Members of Parliament.

TL:DR: We don't vote for One Leader, we elect representatives for our constituency to Parliament. People seriously need to get over themselves and this 'I dIdN'T VoTe FoR ThEm! OuR DeMoCrAcY iS cOrRuPt' nonsense attitude.

This is like a scene from a Wes Anderson movie.

It’s still an unbelievably wank system, though.

With the selection process we have it wont get much better because the installed chosen mob will find a way to pollute it.

How do you make laws and govern nearly 60 million people who don't have a common purpose and are fractured into a disjointed mess?

By meaningful manifestos. None are worth the paper they are written on, but ones that have integrity and a party committed to them. Pipe dream I know
