51% is a mandate when you compare it to Britain. Labour won the largest majority in history with 44% of the vote in 1997. Then retained most of it in 2001 with 40.7%.
So let's say that again - 40% of the vote = 150+ majority in the House of Commons. It's hard not to do exactly what you want with a 'mandate' like that.
