You are wrong. It's incredibly rare for a Government in the UK to have
been voted for by the majority of the population. I'm not actually sure
if it's ever happened. The current labour government has the support of
about 40% of those who voted, which means less than 40% of those

So what would you suggest? Put the 2nd most voted for party into government
instead? Or have that oh so successful setup known as a coalition which is
a disaster wherever its tried because no one ever agrees on anything? No
thanks mate. If I wanted to live in a political cockup like that I'd move to
italy.

that what we call democracy really isn't as good as some people seem to
think it is, and leaves a great many people ideologically unrepresented
in parliament.

Its better than the alternatives.
