So you want a President.

 

Our head of state is the queen, which is great as it means we don't need a president.

 

The PM is just the leader of the winning party and can change with no need for a general election.

 

What would be the point of a leader with no party behind them to get bills passed?

 

What a ridiculous idea, we would end up like the USA :lol:

 

No i dont want a president,i want a voting system where the electorate can vote for a prospective prime minister not a local MP.

Obviously each candidate would represent a particular party...i didnt think i would have to explain that..its pretty obvious.

I have thoughts on our soveriegn but that a whole different thread

So you want the whole system to hinge on one person :001_huh:

 

I like the fact that parties put forward a manifesto and have to find representatives for each constituency. It makes westminster at least give us a little thought.

 

I also like the fact that those representatives have the power to remove the PM if enough of them think its necessary.

Oh ffs...really??

Here it is as basic as i can describe it ok

Take our political system as it is with each party voting in its leader and having a manifesto-all that stays the same.

The key difference here is at the ballot box where you vote for the leader of each party and the party/manifesto that they represent not a local MP.

Local MP elections would be a seperate vote altogether.

I cant put it much simpler

Nope...wrong again -voting for your local MP would be a seperate election.

:confused1:

 

So you vote for a local MP and a PM, which vote would trump the other?

 

And if the local MP you vote for is in a different party to the PM you vote for how does that work?:001_huh:
