So there's little difference between with Cameron's case or Browns except that an election for brown worked in the tories favour! Like I said before changed the rule to suit them. | |||

Or did I miss the part when Cameron was selected after the general election??" Not at all you are very astute. But the main points are that a) as a nation we do not vote for Prime Ministers. They are appointed by Her Majesty when they can assure her they command the confidence (ie a majority) of the House. That Prime Minister may not even be the winning party and may not have been the leader at the time of the election. And b) legislation has changed since the time Brown became PM. At THAT time PMs had the freedom (and advantage) of choosing when to go to the country. Brown had the opportunity and bottled it. But he had that choice. Theresa May does not have that choice. In giving up a sitting PM's advantage of choice we give them security of tenure for 5 years . Unless he / she loses a vote of confidence and thereby cannot assure Her Majesty of that confidence. I hope I have clarified matters ... | |||

Who was it that changed this ruling then?" It was a popular change supported by both Tories and Lib Dems since conservatives didn't have a majority when it went through. I don't remember much disagreement from labour. Only about 60,000 people ever directly elect the prime minister anyway! | |||

" Which in that case another leader from the ruling party is voted for by their own party and not the very people they will be governing. Who was it that changed this ruling then? " That would be Parliament then. It was legislation approved by Parliament. And again you keep repeating the error. we do not vote for a Prime Minister. We vote for an MP in a Constituency and the Leader of the party that commands a majority (or the Confidence) of the House is invited by Her Majesty to form a Government. Constitutionally the Queen can remove a Prime Minister and invite someone else as she did in Australia in 1975 when the Government there was gridlocked. | |||
