It seems to mean whatever gets them back into power as many politicians like many rock stars start to believe they are the saviour of society and cannot possibly be wrong. To the Athenians, who invented it, democracy meant giving every citizen* the right to vote on every issue - effectively a referendum on every decision. * Citizens had to be male, property owners and have completed military training. To my mind, democracy means having the right to change one's mind when the facts change. Already half the lifetime of a normal session of government (five years) has elapsed and we know a *heck* of a lot more now about the ramifications of leaving. A new poll of Labour Party members shows that over 80% want now to remain in the EU. Business Insider UK reported on 4 September that 2.6 million voters have switched support from leave to remain. http://uk.businessinsider.com/this-p...18-9?r=US&IR=T MM The facts have not changed since the referendum.. But the fact is, many more voters are now aware of the facts. Any future changes will be for the worse. Eg, EUSSR army. Why is that a change for the worse, given the threat Putin poses? Is that the best reason you can come up with for voting to leave? MM |
