There are any number of criticisms I would happily join you in directing at the British parliamentaey system but I don't think relying on American businesses to pressure the government would actually be the win for democracy you seem to suggest?
- arrowsmith 1y agoI didn't say anything prescriptive, I'm just disputing your use of the word "democratic".
- AlecSchueler 1y agoFor all it's issues I think you would be hard pressed to argue that the United Kingdom isn't a democracy in the common sense of the term.
- johnnyanmac 1y agoFor all it's issues, it's practically bad faith to argue that the UK is a democracy in the spirit of the term. I believe that's how the EU works with law? Oh yeah, they left that.
- AlecSchueler 1y agoI have no idea what this means.
- johnnyanmac 1y agoRepresentives not representing their constituents makes democracy a sham. If you think representatives as of late are acting in good faith, I question yours.
- anigbrowl 1y agoNone of this is responsive to the specific criticisms made, and nor are the follow-up replies.
