Re: Terry (won't have voted for the next PM)

"Having this country being 'run' by a PM that hasn't won their spot by a majority vote at a general election."

No party has won an actual, _real_ majority vote at a general election in a very long time.

The Conservatives and Labour have been trading places based on receiving 33-35% of the vote. Hardly a majority. Gerrymandering is what makes most of the difference.

Anyway, voters elect the party. The party selects its leader and he selects his cabinet. Any idea that you're voting for _anyone_ as prime minister is misguided at best.
