So I'm right then. The Far Right is whingeing pretty much for the sake of it.

So you are complaining about the fact that no British PM ever had a mandate given they don’t secure the majority of the voting populace….but you also want to maintain that system while complaining about. So just old man whining for old man whining sake. |

He at least has a popular mandate. Starmer, not so much. Less than half the country voted for either of them. They each won more votes than anyone else. What's the difference? |

I thought Trump got a majority?

Nope. Currently at 49.85% of the total. It's not likely to fall much more, but there's maybe half a million more votes to be counted.

So FPTP delivered Starman a thumping majority and mandate but the right just can't get over their loss?
The whine little b!tches should get over it and move on, it's pathetic at this point.

No democratic mandate whatsoever.

The last UK government to have a democratic mandate was the Con-Lib alliance in 2010. The last single party mandate was Stanley Baldwin in 1931.
I accept this to be true. Do you?

Well, you're the one arguing that he doesn't have a democratic mandate. So either you want a democratic mandate and think that every UK government in the past century shouldn't have done a thing as they didn't have popular support, or... and just hear me out on this... you don't give a sh*t about a democratic mandate and are just pissing and whining like a baby. |

It's only a mandate for Baloo when it's the Tories wining a majority in parliament without a majority of the electorate voting for them, when it's labour, of course, they can only be considered having a mandate when a majority of voters vote for them. Its entirely consistent with right wing logic.

oh we know your point, its only mandate when the Tories get a parliamentary majority while loosing the popular vote. And FPTP is only legit when it delivers a tory majority.
Though really its all a blind to cover up your constant whiney meltdown over loosing to Starmer, a thing you apparently can just not get over.
