The party in power holds at least half of the seats in the House of Commons
In a parliamentary democracy, a majority government is one in which the ruling party has a majority of the seats in parliament. In contrast, a coalition government is one in which two or more parties combine to have a majority of the seats, and thus form a government. A minority government is one in which no party or coalition has a majority of the seats, but the largest party forms a government anyway. Minority governments are very unstable, and generally do not last very long.

No, Sir Charles did not WIN a majority government when he was elected as Prime Minister but because the Conservatives had won a majority at the 1891 general election, when he became Prime Minister he inherited that majority
Yes the majority does have the right to control the majority. That is what government is. If there was no government control of anything, we'd have anarchy and the world would be a terrible place to live in.
