No matter what govt the electorate may chooses, majority Conservative,labour or a coalition.

This would be more outrageous than going back on the EU vote if with all these changes and policy changes too,on top of the EU exit, the Country was now denied a voice in a general election with an unelected PM in place.

Whoever takes over will I feel sure face massive pressure to hold an early election as they have no mandate,if they don't that will turn to anger too and rightly so.
This is too long to the next election,almost a full term,this would be a PM acting on a major constitutional issue that affects across the whole UK who has not a bit of elected authority to do so.
How can we possibly have a general election with both Labour and the Tories without any kind of leadership? Both sides need to sort their leadership and have a settling down period.
