This is a representative Parliamentary democracy Daddy ... we vote for individual MPs. A clear majority of the British electorate returned MPs who are now sitting on the Government benches.

Anyone who claims 'we didn't vote for a coalition' is both ignorant of the basic processes in our system and is also, IMO, being wilfully ignorant of all the polling and punditry that went on in the month prior to the election. It was abundantly clear that no single party was going to get an outright majority.
