Nesbitt Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 They had the biggest majority of any other government with over 17,000,000 votes and the conservatives alone received more votes than the labour government of 2006 and only 20,000 votes less than the labour government of 2001. Looks pretty conclusive to me. The ConDems were not a party. They did not exist. Nobody voted for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeMaquis Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 If this builds enough momentum in the next few months then they will be forced to bring the people's voice to light. And what in practice does they will be forced to bring the people's voice to light mean outside your fantasy world. The present government were never elected. Oh yes they were. The coalition government came into office as a result of the 2010 general election, just like a majority government would have been, unless you know an abscure bit of British constitutional law which says that only a majority government can be elected.

Jeffrey Shaw Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 This is not the system of we use, every five years we vote for the government we want, we did this and the result was the government we have and in 2015 we can do it again. Er, no. We vote for the MP whom we want to represent us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeMaquis Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 The ConDems were not a party. They did not exist. Nobody voted for them. I'm sure that argument would stand up well in court if you made a constitutional challenge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmaximus Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 The ConDems were not a party. They did not exist. Nobody voted for them. They still don't exist so there's no problem for you to worry about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeMaquis Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Er, no. We vote for the MP whom we want to represent us. Usually based on the party the voter wants to see in government. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maxmaximus Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 Er, no. We vote for the MP whom we want to represent us. Stop being picky, you know what I meant. Having said that I suspect most people place their x in the box marked with the party they want rather than the name of the MP they want, I would put money on the fact that many people don’t even know the name of the MP they will vote for until they see it next to the party they want.

Nesbitt Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 I'm sure that argument would stand up well in court if you made a constitutional challenge. Whether it would or not, the fact is that nobody EVER voted for a MP who was part of the ConDem party. The party was contrived, it did not exist. They are living a lie and have no right to govern!!

altus Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 The ConDem party did not exist, so nobody could have voted for them. There is no ConDem party. You're still demonstrating you don't know how our electoral system works. I suggest you go and find out how it does work before you comment further - you're making yourself look silly.
