Israelis ardently support Likud, Americans support Republicans, etc, but Tories seem to exist *without* support from average Brits who apparently like living in a complete disaster. Am I just missing that chunk of population, or is British political process that truly fucked up?

@Leucrotta FWIW Americans don't really support Republicans in the numbers people think they do either, it's all propped up by basically politics cheat codes lol

EDIT: For reference, no Republican president has won the popular vote since Reagan, the election in 2000 was *actually* stolen (Al Gore won and they just basically let Bush take it) and even smaller elections are gerrymandered to hell
