When we voted in 2005 the majority of the UK voted Labour MP so we (I use the term we, although I couldnt vote last election) voted in Labour.

The leader of the Labour party becomes the Prime Minister, so really we voted for the MP which then is essentialy voting for the party.

Brown or whoever else becomes the next PM will be an elected representative.

However I do agree, that we should have a chance to vote again as even though the same party is in power, the leader might have differing ideologies from the previous leader.
