I thought they elected a party and the party chooses who leads it? Have to be honest I don’t follow foreign politics as well as I should. But the same thing applies at a local level. I want to vote for individual representatives and senators. At whatever level I don’t want a bunch of out of touch rich folks deciding who best represents my individual interests.
You’re right. I had some fundamental misunderstandings of the system. My apologies. I’ll go rethink things. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.
At least parliamentary system allows for more than two parties.
Also, people do directly vote for their MPs in most systems.

No worries… No system is perfect, but I personally think there are a lot of benefits to it over what we currently have in the US.
