No, they won't.What really bothers me is the inability for people to accept democracy. If the other team gets more votes they get to call the shots. If your team didn't, it's because your ideas weren't as popular, so it's time to rethink. What seems to happen now is voters get immediately called racist or thick, when the reality is that the losing team's policies were a bit shit and the collective wisdom of voters spotted that. They may not be as educated, but they are not thick.

But...The problem is that the people didn't vote for this. As has been much repeated since the election only 43% of the people voted Tory, yet they get 56% of the seats. Add in the Brexit Party and it's still only 46% of the population voted for definite pro-leave parties.
It's been like this for years and is an inherent failing in the FPTP system, the difference now is that the repercussions will be on a whole different level. There comes a point where you have to say FTPT is flawed and undemocratic and accept that it does not make for an election process that is friendly and calm.
