This really pisses me off, the Labour party should at least have gone through the motions of voting for him even though he was a dead cert.

Are we to expect no more general elections in future as well? Just keep Labour in power forever. Angry
The most annoying statistic is that if only half the country voted in the first place and only half of those voted labour;that means Labour we're voted in by only 25% of the voting population!!

I understand that the mechanism we have is there to promote strong government...but jesus...makes you think...
