Not yet anyway, they just need her there for the bad news part then the vultures like boris will swoop. Some leaders then u will have.

The thing is you can’t compare her job to any normal job. As a manager or leader of a company it’s much easier to keep people in line and most workers respect their authority. MO’s are so much different. Yes she has a big stick but then who ever it’s used on is on the back benches and can still effect what happens. It’s a democracy you know? If she deselected any of them then there would be big questions to answer around that democracy.

I’m also not entirely sure why MO’s would be that concerned about a general election either? A lot of seats are safe so it would only worry the few and people like Boris wouldn’t give a crap about it as he’ll be safe as people seem to love him for some reason.

The leader doesn’t really choose who is an MP. That’s down to the public. I could join the Tory party and stand in local elections. She’ll chose the cabinet but booting them out of that just puts them on the back benches where they can still be a pain in the arse and even harder to control. That’s the only reason Boris was given a cabinet job. I might be wrong but that’s how I think it goes and once you start getting rid of people who’re democratically elected because they cause a few problems you then start getting into the realms of dictatorships.

Her main problem is that they’re so devided I’ve this as a party. Obviously when most agree it’s easier and she’d look like a stronger leader.

To explain further anyone can be a member of the conservative party its £30 a year. Then in my example those people who are members in say wakefield have several candidates put forward in what are called hustings. Each candidate explains why they are best and the members vote. If the candidate gets most votes in the general public election he / she becomes the MP for wakefield

Hey common, I do understand democracy and as such I never said the PM chooses the MPs, what I asked was whether she was choosing the candidates to become MPs if elected by the people. In my country it's ultimately the PM who chooses the candidate though he us advised. Is it different in UK?

Ok I understand, as I said, in Mauritius it at the end the party leader's ultimate choice, probably because everybody knows everybody given our size and there are only 60 candidates per party for a general election. That said, your PMs have leverage on the cabinet and therefore could have authority if well led.

Like I said earlier, if she kicks anyone out of the cabinet they’re still on the back benches where they can still be a massive pain in the arse. Maybe more so as she doesn’t have them close to her. The way the Torries are at the minute I think anyone would struggle to lead them effectively.
