Is British Democracy Broken?
The UK got another new prime minister who the public didn’t vote for. In fact, the majority of British prime ministers over the past century initially came to power without a national election. How does this keep happening?

This is what happens when a state sponsored channels of a country that doesn't have any form of democracy, makes a 'report' on an electoral process they have so little experience, perspective or knowledge of to even realize why and for what these differences exist.

Any electoral reform can only be enacted from the Conservatives or Labour. Neither will. Countless Labour PMs have resigned and succeeded without general elections. As early as 2007 in Westminster and Wales in 2018. Few on the left complained then.

The public have no choice in who they are voting for...that's a weak "Democracy". To call THIS a Democracy is far reaching. Its a draconian attempt at it & its failing miserably, however it won't be changing due to the masses not having enough solidarity to force a change. They would rather bicker over petty nonsense & "party" rivalries rather than what is all round best for the nation as a whole. Which would then take me to one of the flaws of a "democracy"...having every man & his dog voting for the future of an entire nation based off of their average knowledge (or lack thereof) is a dangerous leap of faith when a parliament is filled with hundreds of people claiming they know what's best for the country, yet bickering over what party to represent. Does such surface value disagreements really make for a parliament of people who truly have the nations best interests at heart? Or merely a career ladder they wish to climb? It's average intelligence people deciding they are experts when in fact would it not make more sense to have less parliament members who are genuine experts in their chosen field to run those aspects? Or to continue to have a merry go round of lesser people decide the fate? Furthermore when the citizens suffer or a disaster happens the individuals who made that call can be safe in the knowledge they will NEVER be held accountable for that decision & their life continues as normal, they may even be allowed another attempt in the future. Knowing the line of people lining up like hyenas behind them will fall to the same fate as they quarrel like children they leave the post unscathed, and join again at the back of the line to try again. When serving in public office you should dedicate yourself to it with enough respect to the position & the responsibility to where, if you make a terrible call on something which is damaging to the nation you shall retire from public office immediately to pass the role onto the whomever is best educated on that subject, not someone who will play party politics for individual or "party" games. You should also be made to compensate financially a majority portion of any finances gained during the failed attempt at running the government, It's also not very democratic to have a house of Lords who can decide if something is important to the general public & whether or not the publics concerns are worth addressing. If the public are in a strong agreement over an issue & government fails or refuses to rectify this issue swiftly with immediate effect then again, it should retire as it is refusing to act on the general rhetoric of the citizens.
No it isn’t broken. It’s the UK system of governance and democracy and no one takes to the streets to protest the outcome.

Problem is that it doesn't go back to the representatives of the people at large, and that the party that's come to power can change faces for people to throw eggs at -with zero ability to fix the actual problem. If the vote had gone back to the representatives of the people at large they could have re-chosen their leader with lower effort and cost. People directly removing the leader can make un-necessary room for constant conspiracy and paranoia, but a non-partisan vote by all mps would make some sense - and people could change their mp if things started to go corrupt.

That's not at all how it woks in America. The president isn't the leader of the majority party in Congress, but gets elected separately, and therefore can't be removed when the majority party picks a new leader. Presidents don't get officially appointed by a constitutional monarch or figurehead president, and they can't call new elections just whenever they think their party will win. The significant similarity is the British House of Commons and the US House of Representatives members are elected by district rather than proportionately, so the party with the most votes doesn't always get the most seats in either country.
i from Malaysia and we also adopt the same system as UK. citizen do not choose the pm but the party. and party that won the election will choose the pm which gained majority of the MP elected. now the parliament does not dissolve, so the MP got the right to choose the PM themself. nothing wrong with democracy is USA president election fair ? as i know it is winners take all from a state ...

Considering the UK system is safer and creates less nazis compared to Republican models, not sure how it can be described as broken.
So the American system is superior. LOLOL 🤣🤣🤣
Time changes and the styles also change.
The prime minister is the representative of the king. He rules the country on behalf of the king. In that case there is no alternative. Britain has bear to that.
This is a very disingenious take on the Westminster system of goverment. A system I think works a heck of alot better than the US system. For a start you cannot veiw the Prime Minister in the same light as the president. The Westminster system gives PARTIES power not INDAVIDUALS. The Prime Minister is simply the person the party chooses to be their figurehead, hence why it can change mid-term if the leader is not representative of the party vision. Second the Pirme Minister still needs to call the ecltion before a certain date (the fact you left that out is quite the ommision). The fact is, if the 5 year term was still in place the election wouldn't happen tommorow anyway. You do adress some issues with the UK, like the 1st past the post system and the fact the PM can call an election at an opertune time and the fact that electorates can result in results un-reflective of the popular vote. However, what you choose to focus on was the fact that people are angry that the party THEY elected in 2019 has internal politics. WOW who would of thought.

I propose blind voting. People should vote for policy changes and government priorities put forward in a manifesto. Not for people. It should be mandatory to implement any policy receiving over 70% support. Mandatory to debate any policy receiving over 50% vote. The party with the most policy supporting votes should take overall control of the house and elect a leader.
Okay, you are making this out to seem way more controversial than it is. There was a general election and the conservatives won, that gives them the right to choose the prime minister amongst its ministers and membership. And so long as they have that majority, there isn't anything wrong with them swapping prime ministers, and not giving the wider electorate a choice in that matter. In the same way that when the president dies we have a messy line of succession. You don't just have a snap general election. At the end of the day, the electorate gave the conservatives their majority with the expectation that those minister would not be up for election for another five years, how and who those ministers then decide to elect as their prime minister is a separate discussion. Given how easily a prime minister can lose the confidence of their party, could you imagine the genuine chaos if every time that happened there was a general election!?

Tomorrow’s World Relationships A perfect match? A loving family? Happy children? The pressures of today’s world create a grim reality where successful and lasting relationships are something of a fantasy. We cannot rely on the experience of elders since they lived in a very different world, so we have to find how to create meaningful and sustainable partnerships today. The key word in this search is connectedness, or rather, interconnectedness. Because the world is changing at an accelerating pace, it is pointless to compare today’s relationships to those of our parents, or even to relationships of people a decade or two older than us. Each year, the world becomes increasingly connected, and a crisis in one place quickly spreads to the rest of the world. On the personal level, too, things today are very different from what they were a decade ago. We have moved from fast food to fast relationships, and brief has become our permanent state of being. To cope with the growing uncertainty and find direction in the emerging chaos, we need to understand where we are going. We are headed toward total connectedness and interdependence. It is an irreversible process. The more connected we become, the more dependent on each other we become, as well. Soon, we will realize that anything that hurts others hurts me, too, and there is nothing I can do to break my ties with the world. In order to cope successfully with our interconnected future, we must change the nature of our ties from abusive and oppressive to supportive and embracing. Since we already broadcast our thoughts, words, and actions to the entire world, we might as well broadcast positive thoughts, words, and actions, and help improve the world for ourselves and others. In a world that is connected positively, the family is the basic unit of connection. A reality where humanity is a mass of isolated individuals is unsustainable because there will be no connections between people and society will disintegrate just as any organism disintegrates into the smallest elements when it dies. Therefore, the family will be the basic unit where people cultivate positive connections. Since people are becoming increasingly individualistic, the family will be the place where people learn to embrace diversity rather than fight against people who hold different views. People will learn that just as our body exists thanks to different cells and organs working together for the sake of the body, different people who work together for the sake of the family enable the success of the family. From the family unit, people will take their lessons to the community, from the community to the city, from the city to the state, to the country, and finally to the entire world. The key, therefore, to successful relationships in tomorrow’s world, lies not only in connections, but in connections between different people for a common goal, where the differences between them ensure their success and make their mutual dependence imperative, and even welcome.

It's a fundamental misconception that the Prime Minister of the UK ought to be elected. The Prime Minister is the leader of the party asked to form government by the King. The leader of the party is elected as an MP, just like the rest of party MPs are. The Prime Minister is appointed by the King, by virtue of being the leader of the ruling party. The public never had a choice of who the Prime Minister is at the ballot box, only the choice of which party they want through the choice of local representatives. That is the nature of the Westminster parliamentary system. It is the same in many countries within the British Commonwealth. Australia had its fair share of musical chair Prime Ministers.

In parliamentary democracy, you don't vote for a prime minister. You vote for your MPs, who then selects who will be the Prime Minister. The Prime Minister is appointed by the Parliament and the Parliament holds the right to change the Prime Minister at their will.

Q (9:29): Fight those who do not believe in Allah or in the Last Day and who do not consider unlawful what Allah and His Messenger have made unlawful and who do not adopt the religion of truth from those who were given the Scripture - until they give the jizyah tax willingly while they are humbled. Indeed the word of Quran is followed
UK is a parliamentary democracy. So people choose MP and they choose PM. Same as India. Also, elections are costly affairs, its not desirable to conduct elections if you are going to end up with same MPs and hence same PM.
PLEASE READ THIS COMMENT. THERE REALLY ISN’T MUCH TIME LEFT… There’s no point in putting your faith in politicians. The first general election (that is the public vote for a political party to take office) was held over 300 years ago in 1695. Is the world scene better now than it was? Is the world happier, less stressed, more hopeful for the future, more secure? No, so get yourself liberated from the stranglehold of the system. Follow the example of Jesus, who refused to accept political office. (John 6:15) He taught his disciples to be “no part of the world” and made it clear that they should not take sides in political issues. John 17:14 I have given your word to them, but the world has hated them, because they are no part of the world, just as I am no part of the world. Mark 12:17 Jesus then said: “Pay back Caesar’s things to Caesar, but God’s things to God.” And they were amazed at him. Be loyal to God’s Kingdom, which Jesus spoke of when he said: “This good news of the Kingdom will be preached in all the inhabited earth.” (Matthew 24:14) As representatives of God’s Kingdom, commissioned to proclaim its coming, remain neutral in the political affairs of all countries, including the one in which you live. 2 Corinthians 5:20 Therefore, we are ambassadors substituting for Christ, as though God were making an appeal through us. As substitutes for Christ, we beg: “Become reconciled to God. Ephesians 6:20 for which I am acting as an ambassador in chains, and that I may speak about it with boldness, as I ought to speak. By remaining neutral, you are able to speak freely to people of all political persuasions about the good news of God’s Kingdom. Try to show by your words and practices that you rely on God’s Kingdom to solve the world’s problems. Psalm 56:11 In God I put my trust; I am not afraid. What can a mere human do to me? By avoiding political divisions, you can be united as an international brotherhood. (Colossians 3:14; 1 Peter 2:17) In contrast, religions that meddle in politics divide their members. 1 Corinthians 1:10 Now I urge you, brothers, through the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that you should all speak in agreement and that there should be no divisions among you, but that you may be completely united in the same mind and in the same line of thought.

In Newfoundland Canada there's a law that if a new Premier(aka Governor) takes office a general election must be called within 1 year of them being sworn in
