Totally agree about the throwing the toys out of the line comment, if they end up with a leader that they don't like.
For all the people standing aside, there will be others wanting to take their place.
If party members are asked to vote again, the support he has amongst them is likely to mean he win again.
It's right though. They're not in the real world. Members elected him with the largest mandate ever, and the PLP think they're in a better place than members to elect the party leader.
Democracy can't only be applied when it suits.
