Boris Johnson was put in place by the party midway through a parliamentary term but did however go on to win a significant mandate from the public.Mr Sunak was elected unopposed last year but months earlier just 140,000 people voted in the last leadership election and only 80,000 voted for Truss.It has been reported that just 78,000 party members will be sent a ballot paper.It is a tiny amount.
When Mr Sunak was appointed Prime Minister, many in the SNP, rightly, said it was undemocratic and called for a general election. We have heard a lot about democracy during the leadership campaign, about the UK Government respecting the will of the Scottish people and about decisions of the Scottish Parliament not being overturned by a UK Government.We have also heard from the candidates how they want to listen to the people, and hear what they have to say.
