The will of which people? Not the 50+ million in the UK who never voted for brexit, nor the majority who voted against his party yesterday.

But, as was posted on another thread varian, those 50 million either didn't collude with each other as to where their votes would be best placed to keep the Conservatives out or they didn't vote at all. Either way, insufficient people voted for the Labour Party/Lib Dems/SNP to have a significant enough affect on the outcome.

Under pour undemocratic voting system, that is true. It should be reformed as it causes huge damage to our country.

And would you have felt that way if Labour had been elected yesterday?

I think varian would prefer we didn’t have fptp as it means Parliament often isn’t representative. I agree with that proposition

Thanks Iam64.
