I think you'll find the Tories vote themselves in. Howard wanted this changed soon after he left, but the cronies have probably forgotten all about it by now...Illegitimus non carborundum est! -
As stated earlier, you don't get a vote on who leads the Labour party unless you belong to it. 12 months ago (or so) us grown ups got a vote as to which party was allowed to run the country - ask your parents who they voted for. The leader of that party becomes the PM. If they choose to change the leader (and as a consequence the PM) then it is a party matter.
As the saggy cloth cat which emily loves said - Did we get to vote on John Major?Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

I remember John Major standing down as Leader of the Tory Party, but still remained PM. Sadly, he got voted back in as Leader on that occassion, but imagine the turmoil if he hadn't won that particular vote...Originally posted by TonyEnglishIllegitimus non carborundum est!Comment

In fact you dont even get to do that I belive, unless you are a sitting MP. Party members get to select their local candidates, most of the time, but not the PM etc. That priviledge is reserved for members of the Palimentary Party, i.e. MPs."Being nice costs nothing and sometimes gets you extra bacon" - Pondlife.Comment

There is in point of fact no constitutional reason (except tradition) for the leader of the largest party to be PM. TB could resign as Leader of the Labour Party tomorrow and still retain the job of PM.Originally posted by AndywThe Sun's claim that Mr Blair will go next summer has not been denied in Downing Street and Sky News' Political Editor Adam Boulton says it is being assumed in Westminster that the news is correct.
"This is now fantastically messy for the Prime Minister," said Boulton.
"Senior MPs and many commentators are saying the party may not stand for this (timetable) and will expect Mr Blair to be out by Christmas.
"He is clearly on the defensive. He is clearly on the run."
John McDonnell, chair of the socialist Campaign Group of Labour MPs, has confirmed he will launch his own campaign to succeed Mr Blair.
Boulton said there would undoubtedly be an election for a successor with some on the left of the Labour party opposed to the Chancellor, Gordon Brown, taking over without a contest.
Hang on a minute !!!! yeah yeah you can all have your silly little in house ramblings and squabbling but, WE THE VOTING PUBLIC DONT GET A SAY ON THIS DO WE !

Except for the fact that he wouldn't be able to push any legislation through and the TB party would only have 1 vote in the commons.Rule Number 1 - Assuming that you have a valid contract in place always try to get your poo onto your timesheet, provided that the timesheet is valid for your current contract and covers the period of time that you are billing for.

If the Tories get in, what will you misserable bunch of cvnts moan about?The court heard Darren Upton had written a letter to Judge Sally Cahill QC saying he wasn’t “a typical inmate of prison”.
But the judge said: “That simply demonstrates your arrogance continues. You are typical. Inmates of prison are people who are dishonest. You are a thoroughly dishonestly man motivated by your own selfish greed.”Comment
