The prime minster of the United Kingdom was democratically voted in by the people of the UK, with a huge majority, yet 50 politicians, with the help of the media have over ruled that decision. We the people demand he is reinstated until such times, we the people , decide to vote him out.
The Prime Minister of the UK was not democratically voted in by the people of the UK.

The Conservative Party was 'democratically voted' into power with a majority of 80 seats (since reduced a fair bit).

The Conservative Party (MPs for the short list, members for winner) selected its leader from amongst its MPs, and that person became Prime Minister.

The people choose the governing party. The governing party chooses its leader and therefore the Prime Minister.

We do not have a presidential system.
