Isn't that like... The basics of how a democratic mandate works?
Not that I've ever seen it as a topic here but still. If Rishi Sunak continues as ~~president~~ PM beyond his term time I'm calling him illegitimate. In fact I'm calling him illegitimate now and forever because we literally never got to vote for the fuck. He has/had no mandate.
EDIT: Fuck me libs jump to the dumbest conclusions over the smallest shit.
Term limits aren’t very indicative of democracy. If someone keeps requesting someone to lead beyond a nominal limit, is it not undemocratic to reject it? I still think a mental/age limit should be in place though.
I think any functioning and sensible democracy would not require one. The problem that the US has with geriatrics is a problem of a malfunctioning bourgeoise-democracy. It's underperforming as a "democracy" even for the bourgeoise because of this.
The us has term limits specifically because what's his ass kept winning and wasn't fashy enough.
Rishi... President? Yea, I don't think you're front the UK.
doesn't seem like you are either
Don't be a dickhead. The pronouns are literally right there in front of your face.
Lmao I was running on 36 hours of being awake when I posted that. I currently reside in Woking if you're wondering, but only for 2 more weeks or I wouldn't be saying that here lmao.
Also a mod over on /r/greenandpleasant, probably banned you at least once if this is the kind of conclusion you jump to over stupid shit.
That's why he's an illegitimate president.
Rishi Sunak is not my president!
