Why not let the people choose their own Prime Minister??? (or their own Queen/King for that matter) even if their chosen leader isn't from the majority party(or from the right family)

I don't agree with the presidential system, it seems to turn elections into popularity contests based on individuals not policies.

Anymore opinions on the house of lords? That's what's being questioned.

should people be given political power with no input from the people? i don't think you'll find anyone who agrees with that system dude. it doesn't sound fair or reasonable at all.

you already know that though. but you still have a hereditary monarchy. so it's not shocking

Ah thought you were referring to the commons still sorry Alex, yes the lords has a say in lawmaking and they are unelected democratically so yes it's unfair.
