U.K. New Prime Minister

By Padmini Arhant

Congratulations! To the Conservative Party leader, David Cameron upon being sworn in as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom.

The new P.M.’s decision to form a coalition with the liberal democrats for majority rule is a positive approach in the absence of viable democratic alternatives.

Although, the alliance is a political choice, the public confidence rests on the leaderships’ ability to work together in national interest.

Often, the political merger is predicted dysfunctional based on the precedence by the present and the past coalition governments worldwide.

Regardless, the contemporary politics is challenged with partisanship even among the majority and attributed to the electorates distrust against any political power in delivering their campaign promise.

U.K.Elections and the Political Dilemma

By Padmini Arhant

The last week General Election results in the United Kingdom generated political confusion.

With the conservatives aka the Tory Right led by the leader, David Cameron as the front runner and the incumbent Labor Prime Minister Gordon Brown trailing behind, the liberal democrats’ leader Nick Clegg is the ‘kingmaker,’ in the hung Parliament.

In the absence of a clear majority, the political parties are attempting unconventional alliances to form a government raising anxiety among the observers at the domestic and international front.

According to the reports, the Tory Right members are advising their leader David Cameron to function as the minority government daring the opposition majority in the Parliamentary affairs.

Unfortunately, it’s an ill advice for the majority could render the minority redundant in the legislative voting process and turn the tide against them in the next possible election.
