Theory v the real world
In theory you elect a local representative that chooses a Prime Minister.
In reality few give a shit who their local MP is (or even know), they are voting for a party and in particular a Prime Minister.
Apart from the rare instances of a hung parliament MP's are lobby fodder for the whips
