We really aren't very good, are we. ( Hoping for reverse psychology )

Whilst there is an element of picking who you want to be PM in selecting who to vote for, most people vote for party or policies, and the PM ends up being the person who can most likely command a majority in the HoC. There is after all no guarantee at a GE that a party leader going into the election will keep their seat, ( eg Jo Swinson ). Would we be having the same "no mandate" demands if the PM left office due to ill health, like Eden and MacMillan ?

The Labour Party has the mandate.

He obviously follows your lead.

Where exactly on the political spectrum do this "majority" exist ?

You have mistaken "...even if Boris was a good Mayor..." for "...Boris was a good Mayor...". I have not given a judgement on Boris as Mayor as I have no experience on which to base it. AB, on the other hand, I do think was a good Mayor, based on personal experience, and testimony from many friends and family living in Greater Manchester.

So, even if Boris was a good Mayor, this was no measure of his suitability to be PM. Anyway, that's enough for tonight - Siouxsie and the Banshees are on telly. Good night.

If a Government runs to term, the majority of the policies it introduces are not found in the original GE manifesto.

Boris ? A shambles.

So he won't be persuading you, as a mentally challenged southerner ? Like a few on here, you don't seem to understand how our democracy works. At a GE the electorate are given a choice of proposed policies, and a significant minority of them end up with their choice being selected. The majority of the electorate end up disappointed, and spend the next Parliamentary term complaining.

How many Prime Ministers do come into the position with experience of running a country ?

Donnie, desperately seeking justification for his imposition of tariffs, is now effectively accusing every major trading partner of profitting from forced labour.

Throwing this away.
