  Ah, my error. I had forgotten that they had altered the process to avoid letting the swivel eyed idiots in the party's membership choose the PM given that they can't be trusted to choose the flavour of a pack of donuts, let alone a PM.

  “What’s it like having only 2 homes, you poor wretched creature? If you have a summer home where do you winter?” 
  Tories should stick to being evil, because when they pretend not to be it’s even worse. >

  We didn't elect him. The tory membership did.
  But the door was opened to this when so many working class people switched to voting Conservative so we could "take our country back". >
  
  No they didn't! Tory membership elected a woman who couldn't out last a lettuce. Seemingly because she's white and he's not. 
  Tory MPs elected him. >
  
  It was the MPs only this time? I never knew that. Makes it worse, to be honest. Instead of thousands of people (all Tory members) choosing who they think would be best to run the country, it's a smaller pool of people being asked to choose their own boss. >
  
  Not quite, Johnson stood aside and Mordaunt didn't get enough support from MPs to make it onto the ballot. It was the same process which was used to narrow the August/ September election down to Truss and Sunak, however only Sunak had enough supporters to make it onto the ballot so there was no second election.
  I would have preferred it if the conservative party had collapsed completely. >
  
  It was NOT the same process! That is a complete falsehood. It was a 2-turn elimination where only the candidates with more than 100 mp supporting them could go to the 2nd turn, and where if more than 2 candidates had 100+ support only the top 2 would be selected.
  Also, if only 1 candidate had 100+ support, they’d be automatically elected WITHOUT a membership vote.
  It bore no resemblance with the usual process, beside the fact that it was used with the goal of electing a PM from conservative MPs.
  (For reference, the usual process was a multi-turn election with a min 20 mp support to be on the first turn ballot, with the candidate having the fewest votes each turn being eliminated, and the remaining 2 candidates after multiple turns pitted against each other in a membership vote.)
