While I appreciate that there are many people who are fans of the "my way or the highway" approach, the fact is that the PM does NOT have absolute power... not over Parliament, not over the Provinces, and not over foreign governments.  Sometimes, the PM needs to compromise depending upon the situation.... that's just the nature of the job.

I don't know where so many people got the idea that dictatorial behaviour and childish tantrums were the traits of a great leader.
