The country being lead by TM is not cause for celebration, but it's definitely a good thing that Leadsom isn't getting the gig. She's a ****ing moron.

The UK does not elect its PM. May is an elected MP and if she is the leader of the largest party, she is PM by default. That is how our system works and is well understood by anyone with a drop of intelligence.
How is she any more unelected than David Cameron?
Can you explain to us how Democracy works in our election system ?
Presumably all the Brexiters who banged on and on about lack of democracy in the EU are perfectly happy that we will have an unelected PM?
And that not one of the leading Brexiteers has the guts to hang around and oversee the forthcoming clusterf**k?

So how does the EU system work then?
Well he completed the Conservative leadership process and won after the membership voted, which is at least a little more complete than everyone else withdrawing before the membership gets a vote.
Shes been elected by 165 out of 310 odd MPs, which I grant is a majority but its hardly the most upstanding version of democracy is it?

There is nobody left in the contest. If Portugal walked off the pitch last night then France would have won.

We have a representative parliamentary system whereby we elect an MP to represent us. The party with the most elected MP's forms the government and the leader of that party is the PM. That is how it works.
Therefore the only out of the ordinary thing that has happened is asking us lot to decide whether the EU was right or not...
We have a government in charge which only 28% of the country voted for
It was more of a loaded question, I wouldn't say what we have is democracy with the first past the post etc.

It works in a way where the British people did not have full control of their law makers.
I mean how is somoene like Claude Junker given his position?
