He won the GE because Britons had enough of the pro-Brexit Tories. We had hoped he would try get the UK back into rejoining the EU or at least the Customs Union. He has not done so. Many of us wouldn't vote for him again, even if he's your "hero".
Er…… he won a General Election. That’s rather his job description.
