Fun fact: the Tories actually experimented with open primaries in some constituencies. I don’t expect that to last though

I find it kinda ironic that they communicate over Discord, but it looks interesting
The legend seems confusing to me. I think it’s trying to say that /home
is non-standard. Notice that the description for /var/run
explicitly states it’s deprecated, and has a solid border.
for a second I thought I read

I get what you mean, but you’re talking about proportional representation (specifically closed-list). Parliament style refers to how the executive branch is formed. Here in the UK, we have a parliamentary system (the Government, our executive branch, is picked* by Parliament, our legislature), but elect the lower house using first-past-the-post, the same system the US uses.
In the UK, generally chosen by party membership. There’s been some experiments with open primaries, but nothing really substantial.
It’s probably worth mentioning that, because the timings of our elections are generally left to the whim of the Prime Minister, candidates are normally elected by the party way in advance so they’re ready just in case anything happens. Our election cycles also usually last only six weeks, which isn’t enough time to run an internal election and then campaign.
