Parliamentary democracy at it's finest. Eton v Wharton. And the losers are?
It isn't parliamentary anything.
The leader of the Conservative and Unionist Party is whittled down from a number of candidates to 2 by Conservative MPs. The final 2 go on a series of hustings (events at which the Conservative party members can see them interviewed) The members (not MPs) then postal vote for one of the 2.
It's no different to how Momentum installed Corbyn. AFAIK it no different to how the UnLib UnDems recently installed Swinson.
But seemingly because May stepped down as PM, much like Thatcher or Blair did before. People are losing their shit and claiming it's terrible. Remember that, unlike say the USA we don't CHOOSE the PM. We choose the party.

I voted him twice to be our Mayor. I didn't vote for the incompetent Khan. Mainly because I don't like who he shared platforms with in his former career.
London, one of the most progressive, liberal, multicultural, diverse cities on the planet. Voted apparently for a Racist? Twice? A man who was in charge during the wonderful London 2012 events.
I didn't realise there were rules as to who one should fall for? Have you heard of the old rule, half your age + 7 :D
Last I heard 31 was old enough to consent as to who she has smashing her back doors in.
I guess some people are more judgmental than me
