If you remove all the balances against Parliament they can do whatever they want. People shouldn't be surprised by this. Arrow's theorem severely limits what democratic bodies like this can really represent from the people and giving them too much power results in similar problems that giving any other governing institution too much power would.
- blibble 4y agothere aren't any balances against Parliament, it is completely supreme (the UK is not the US)
