Nobody voted for this govt. That's the trouble with coalitions: nobody
votes for them [1].

Nobody _ever_ votes for _any_ Government. People vote for their MP. The
party with most MPs form the Government.

People generally vote for a party, Who the party rep is in a particular
area, is incidental in most cases (with a few celebrity driven
exceptions)

The reason they choose the candidate to vote for is a separate thing.
Their vote does no more, no less than go towards selecting _their MP_.
