[EM] another question regarding the UK PM election...

[robert bristow-johnson]

after the MPs are determined by FPTP for each constituency, then does  
not Parliament need to meet to vote for the PM?  is a majority of MPs  
required, or does plurality suffice?  if the former and no single  
party has a majority, won't there be a whole shitload of negotiation  
between the 3 major parties to form a majority?  especially with this  
election so up in the air (at least that's how it reported on this  
side of the pond), how possibly can the new PM be moving into 10  
Downing Street tomorrow morning?

thanks to the Brits for dispelling my ignorance.
