None of them have actually "won" (i.e. got the necessary number of seats) so whatever happens we will have an unelected PM who managed to get his mates to help him out.
I don't know why we don't vote for both local representation and then the country leader so its decided one way or the other. I think on balance if my MP wins his local area then his party do poorly and he doesn't end up in Westminster there is something wrong but equally if someone gets 20% of the vote and 9% of the seats but then effectively has the casting vote as to who is PM and indeed gains political leverage as a result! So Clegg's been done on the system then given power beyond his merit after! -----Original Message----- Also very strange that a party leader who has never won a general election could be entering his second term as Prime Minister. _______________________________________________ the Leeds List is an unmoderated mailing list and the list administrators accept no liability for the personal views and opinions of contributors.
