Your theory is that democracy would trickle up. I am saying in practice it is homeopathic democracy.

Which is terrible legislation, I agree on that. But my point elsewhere in this thread is that we have the ability for future governments to overturn unpopular legislation, something that is not unusual at all in the UK. Consider it read&#x2

I get mine (2000IU & K2) from Amazon where 400 tablets are between £8 and £10. That is before any bulk discounts are considered. VitD as a preventative would probably be distributed through the GP system rather than the hospital system,

Your link to the Commission and Council is homeopathic democracy, right? In the UK with a Parliamentary democracy, unpopular policy ideas can be abandoned. Manifestos are not always adhered to, but they typically include ideas that their ca

I think it’s plausible that the UK electorate are sick of switching between Tories and Labour for the last hundred years, especially as they have become indistinguishable in many respects. They were held back because there wasn’t a plausi

Identical in every respect other than those with the power to initiate legislation are completely immune to voter displeasure. The Commission have no direct link to the electorate and the your country's (sorry, “state”) Council represe

I do know how it works, I also know about U-turns, backbench revolts, opinion poll panic, doorstep canvassing hostility, and voter backlashes. All ways in which the electorate can have an impact. Good luck getting your EU Commission to chan

I’m not in the US, and glad to no longer be in the EU. My point is that there is zero chance of this unpopular legislation being repealed once the EU have forced it through. I would rather take my chances in a sovereign parliamentary democr

Yes, "inclusive and safe environment" sounds like ghastly Corporate HR Speak rather than anything resembling a British Pub. It does give the vibes of Captain Buzzkill on a power trip. Can easily imagine Mine Host[1] eavesdropping

No problem... it's not straightforward at all. Each member state nominates a Commissioner candidate, in consultation with the incoming Commission President. Each Commission candidate is interviewed by a Parliamentary committee, and (ra

The BBC are critical of those to the right of the centre-left. But because they are also critical of the extreme loony left, we should consider them balanced…? They are a publicly funded Public Service Broadcaster with impartiality built in

I’d say the bad decisions were made by Heath in ‘72 and Major in ‘93. Neither offered a referendum. You may consider this a correction.

When the Remainer Establishment refuse to use new freedoms and possibilities, and spend the intervening nine years telling people it was a bad idea, then I’d be surprised if it didn’t have an impact on public opinion. Let’s see what a chang

I switched from OpenAI to Gemini a couple of months ago, and was impressed how it sticks to its guns if it thinks I'm wrong.
