While you are not wrong it’s worth noting he was not elected by the public and even worse before he was basically handed the job he ran (internaly) on a platform of fixing the economy he fucked as chancellor of the exchequer
I hate this excuse, everyone knows how parliaments work. You vote for representatives that form a government. Everyone votes for their own constituency only but not everyone ends up with dickheads so consistently.
Sure, but Sunak wasnt even the second choice for the Tories during the last election. He’s in the Gerald Ford grey zone where no one feels like they voted for him, making him seem illegitimate. The British public voted for the Tories in 2019 (because they are morons) with the expectation that Boris Johnson would be in charge. Now the head of the party has resigned twice since then. In theory it’sall standard procedure for Parliament, but it’s a clearly unstable government and viewed as a farce at this point.
with the expectation that Boris Johnson would be in charge
I’m not sure this make it any better. It’s not like Boris Johnson hid the fact that he was a Tory. At a certain point I’m just going to stop saying “I told you so” and start calling you an idiot.
It’s still possible to be unfair to idiots, though.
If an idiot believes he can face down a speeding freight train, but only if it’s yellow then, in his eyes, it’s just not cricket if the one that turns him into jam is in fact blue.
He wasn’t better, he just had more legitimatacy since he was the party leader during the last election. Hell, Sunak resigned from said government before Johnson resigned. That’s why there were calls for a new election after Truss resigned, but the Tories refused because they knew they would get clobbered at the polls.
I think you vastly over estimate the knowledge of your average love island watching, down the pub every night after work, get their entire worldview from Facebook, British person.
It’s not an excuse. While you correct in that’s the mechanics of how it works here very few could even tell you the name of the representative they are voting for they just base their vote on the team and or team leader.
Hell. I remember my mum discussing how she couldn’t vote for kinnock because she can’t stand him. In her Scottish constituency
He lost the only party member leadership vote he took part in. He lost to someone completely detached from reality, that immediately sought to destroy the value of most people pensions that only benefitted a few hedge funds looking to profit from the UKs demise.
While true, the Tory party that won the last election looks a bit different to the gobshites that are in government now.
Don’t get me wrong, I thought the last lot were assholes as well, but while technically legal, swapping out basically all of the government several times seems like a bit of a bait and switch.

In what way was Johnson better than Sunak?

Silly hair funny.

The guy that was elected by the public was Boris Johnson, who is arguably even worse.
I agree but sadly that gave him more legitimacy than this bell end
He lost the only party member leadership vote he took part in. He lost to someone completely detached from reality, that immediately sought to destroy the value of most people pensions that only benefitted a few hedge funds looking to profit from the UKs demise.
Your preaching to the choir. If it were up to me the whole party wouldn’t get a wiff of power from the first time I was old enough to vote.
Instead “I got my way” once with these asshats running this shithole even further into the ground ever since
Well someone keeps voting in the fucking tories. If they didn’t, he wouldn’t be PM right now.

Yeah same can be said for republicans. Seems like conservative parties around the western world are going batshit crazy lately
Oh really?
Unfamiliar with the uprising of right leaning politicians going around I see. Perhaps you should peek in at the Netherlands.
