Fuck, the U.K. got several new PMs without even an election during the last few years!
That's not a good thing in a democracy.
Shh shh, just let them have this one. It's bad enough to be in the UK as it is. :p
People don't vote for a prime minister. They vote for local representatives, the representatives are in parties that negotiate with each other to build a majority and form a government, and the Prime Minister is effectively the person that the representatives agree will lead the government. They don't have presidential powers, they are just a leader of the negotiated government.
Don't worry, electorate made their feelings known when it was time.
