So a President?
So a President?Because it absolutely SHOULD be a requirement.
Nope not at all, just a PM who stands by a manifesto. If the party he represents decide they want him out and to change that manifesto, (Trussenomics for example) then they should seek backing from the people they represent.So a President?
I remember when Sunak got the top job, all the press were shouting about him being the first British Asian to become PM, but I kept saying he's an illegitimate PM, he was not, and never has been voted in and endorsed by the electorate, and neither was Truss before him, and yet we claim to be a democracy.
Imo it's simple, if a governing party vote out their leader who was elected by the people, it should immediately trigger a general election.
And the same applies to MP's who cross the floor, it should imediately trigger a by-election in their constituency.

We could call it democracy!
Yep, totally out of order.Two of the last 3 Labour leaders in government weren’t elected but coronated
stops an electoral pact though as they are still on the ballotDoesn’t stop a pact
There is zero requirement for a PM to be elected by the electorate- why this is an obsession for some I have no idea
So seems like the answer is to pay for the little scrotes to be sent to private schools then?Again, it depends on the school and their resource. Not the teachers fault.
It's pretty much guaranteed that a naughty kid with no interest in education and their parent don't give a shit either will take up more resources and teacher time than the ones you mention.
One example I can think of is my daughter being in a class at primary school teaching other kids to read because the teacher was spending all of their time with the naughty kids and a couple of kids that couldn't speak English. She was also baffled that kids were getting rewarded for not being naughty for a week when she was good all the time and wasn't.
Again, no issues with the teacher because they openly said they would love to spend all their time with kids like her but they can't. Meanwhile, my daughter wasn't getting an education.
Lewandowski?Be hilarious to see the Torys coming third.
In all honesty we all know there's only 1 pole that counts.
Marie curieLewandowski?
Can she finish tho?Marie curie
It begs the obvious question. If we’ve been provoking Russia into invading Ukraine since the 90’s and Putin is the most impressive political operator how on earth was Russia so unprepared for invading Ukraine?Nigel Farage criticised for saying West provoked Ukraine war

I'm just glad my ChatGPT tokens got topped up this week.@Sick Boy changing his voting allegiance as we speak
ExactlyI think the key issue comes when the new leader goes completely off-piste from the existing manifesto.
The problem is people who are a fan of him are happy to brush stuff like this off. You'd expect it to be terminal but it will be the usual main stream media setup bollocks on the socialsSo watching the debating tonight and I knew it would happen, good old Farage has just devastated the Refirm vote by accusing the West of provoking the war in Ukraine.
My god his only brain cell has seriously f***** up this time.
Thats surely the end of Reform
Nigel will be on the Dover cliffs pointing at some migrants tomorrow and the Reform lot will soon forgive and forget.So watching the debating tonight and I knew it would happen, good old Farage has just devastated the Refirm vote by accusing the West of provoking the war in Ukraine.

I don’t do politics normally, I have my opinion and that’s it, and it’s very unlikely I’ll ever post again in this thread, but what a foot in mouth moment. Does the idiot know what went on before the invasion pre Feb 22
British politicians shouldn’t be appealing to people to vote for him based on their take on events somewhere else in the world. Likewise ‘ British ‘ voters should be trying to choose politicians that can affect their daily lives in the UK. The country is fucked !

This is the worst bit:
"I said I disliked him as a person, but admired him as a political operator because he's managed to take control of running Russia," Mr Farage said.
So you can get past the fact he's a murderous dictator because he's done well to become a murderous dictator. OK Nige.
But would have been a better PM than Johnson.Spot on. Corbyn was a shit leader. He appealed to a relatively small section of voters and Labour members but was unelectable. The polling in 2019 highlighted that perfectly. Labour under Corbyn was a protest party with no hope of governing. I still voted Labour and always will, but fuck was I tired of his sheer ineptness. Corbyn is suited to standing in Trafalgar Square with a megaphone, not sitting behind a desk in Number Ten. People used to point at the amount of people who turned up at his rally's as proof he was a great man. He wasn't.
Starmer will be Prime Minister and I shall thank God he is. I've been a Labour Party member since 1983, there have been some dark times and some great times, now I'm hoping we are in for a period of stability, once we get shot of the awful Tory Government.
tbf, it was quite the achievement of the Tory party to come up with somebody worse than Johnson.But would have been a better PM than Johnson.
Well it's not like any of our leaders have caused hundreds of thousands of needless deaths, in illegal Invasions is itSo you can get past the fact he's a murderous dictator because he's done well to become a murderous dictator. OK Nige.
You’re twisting words. The West have been poking the Russian bear over Ukraine and expanding Nato for sure and Putin hates it.This is the worst bit:

It was indeed used to justify his vile aggression. On the point of admiration, historians have always pointed out how difficult it is to control such a huge nation and the Putin regime are by and large achieving this.

Question is, like Trump, do his cult like supporters really care?
