So, you put yourself up as a local councillor and get voted in by 17%
of the electorate for that ward ... do you think you now represent the
majority of that ward?


No. You represent *all* of the people in the ward.

Oh, you left brainers ... you are such hard work ... ;-(

You really only get / deal in black and white don't you, thinking that
'representing' in practice is the same as representing in goals,
ethics, morals and principals.

It's rather like the Armed Forces fighting an enemy - they fight for
*all* the people, not just a sub-set.

Again, only in practice, not principle. No slaughterman is killing any
animals for me, even though they are killing animals.


So, I want to reduce animal cruelty and suffering and a councilor
get's voted in who happens to be a dairy farmer. How much positive
representation and support do you think I will get from them re
closing all dairys in the area?


But supporting a ragime that is using it's members money to make slaugheter cheap and efficient is OK then ?
Look at who eats the most meat in the EU, Denmark Germany, italy france they all want cheap meat for thier citizens
So if everyone in the club pays their tax in to the slaughter pot this cheap meat can be achieved
This club gives around $800 per year per cow subsidy to farmers so the club can provide cheap
dairy products to some 3rd world countires and to Russia. Look up the common agricultural policy
You argee with this too as you wanted to remain in this club.
Only a right brainer would claim to support animal walfare and then want to stay in a club that promotes the oppersite.


(Don't bother answering as it's been obvious for a long time (inc in
this thread) you have no idea about any of it or actually being
interested in the spirit of the question).


Well you never answered mine when you calim a NOTA means something in a ballot
on whether you want to saty in the EU or Leave the EU
what exactly is another option that is out of the box thinking ?
Take a shot, have a shave, have a wank

No it's draw a penis that is a NOTA isn't it.
