Are you serious? Forming a coalition to pass a couple of bills is not the same as forming a coalition to replace the current government and swear in a new PM, right after the people re-elected the current PM. I'm not the debating the legality of it.

Like I said, how you can ask people to participate in a process of selecting a government when it's now blatantly clear that their choice doesn't matter?
