I thought he had won reelection a few months back? Or am I thinking of something else?

[-] givesomefucks@lemmy.world 11 points 3 days ago

It's tomorrow, and technically he's not on the ballot...

People pick a party, and then the parties get together and pool their votes until it forms a coalition, and that coalition picks a party to lead, then I think that party picks the PM.

The current coalition has no real chance of continuing. Because it's a shit ton of extremism who don't want to compromise with any other group of extremists.

A big attack right before the election to cancel it was his only hope, but he's apparently tried and failed already

Ah, something like a parliamentary system? He may, technically, not be in the ballot, but I have no doubt that everyone knows the score.

I wonder what happened a few months ago that I'm thinking of?
