    We didn’t vote for him, and i did not vote for his party at the last election. Now i get to take it in the butt by his policies.

      It bugs me when they say that they are doing this and that “for the will of the people” when the majority of the people didn’t vote for them. And even if they did, it might have been for a different reason than the thing that they are talking about at the time.

        Idealistically, you’d hope that the leader of the country would be looking out for their people and doing things that help the people primarily.

        Usually when they say that though it’s when they’re quietly handing out huge contracts to their friends and family to do the thing they’re talking about, for example Sunak corruptly giving his wife’s company allocations from the national budget.
