You think she was elected for merit? That’s not how politics works in the UK

  She was elected how every other politician ever got elected: by maneuvering smartly, building alliances, having a strong network and being lucky with getting the timing right and not getting tossed out because of circumstances beyond their control. And yet they obviously did get elected and had real power. "Men rule the world" as a serious statement is obviously nonsense and it's so easy to disprove I'm amazed that it was even claimed, unless it's with the modern sociological twist of "power is male, therefore these women were men while in power" and similar attempts to destroy all capability of language transporting information.
