The Plot
// Why is it that we have had five Conservative prime ministers since 2010, with not one of the previous four having left office as the result of losing a general election? That is a democratic deficit which the mother of parliaments should be deeply ashamed of and which, as you and I know, is the result of the machinations of a small group of individuals embedded deep at the centre of the party and Downing Street. //

Pincher was the final straw: they’d been lied to in briefings long enough. Even when the resignations grew and grew he was determined to cling on: and his behaviour to the PM and government since just shows he was unfit for his office.
Which is actually a shame because he had many good points. Doesn’t matter a damn of course but I was prepared to let the lockdown stuff go because of his stand on Ukraine. And then Pincher happened and for many it was one cover up too many

It isn't really practical to force a GE every time there's a perceived policy change.
If folk opt to choose their candidate because of a party leader then that's their choice, but they then should accept that the leader can change, and perhaps they ought to have put more store on the local candidates they could have chosen.

So what are you suggesting gromit? There is a GE every time a PM resigns? Some sort of separate election for the PM? PM's from labour, Whig and Tory have parties have resigned in the past and the PM ship passed to the new leader. It happens more for the Tories because they are in the majority of the time.
