Politician­s deciding everything for us

-

✒ DOESN’T modern democracy stink and where in reality democracy for the people just does not really exist anymore.

In this respect another pointer of the demise in the purest sense of the concept and system of democracy for the people, by the people and for the people, is in actuality no more.

Before the next Conservati­ve leader is voted for by the party membership, our illustriou­s Tory MPS are given the power to whittle the voting numbers down to just two.

We all remember well how 75 per cent of MPS voted to remain in the EU and not to undertake the wishes of the majority of UK voters to leave the EU after the 2016 referendum.

Therefore it is not the people anymore who are determinin­g how democracy should be.

The political parties who decide beforehand who they want and what they want and where the people are simply being used in all reality, as cannon fodder for them to get exactly what they actually want and when.

In other words our politician­s stitch us up all the way through from start to finish under the guise of what we call democracy and where in reality it is simply a mirage of what the actual case is.

The question is, why do we vote for politician­s under this pre-selection and dictatoria­l system of democracy in its totally un-purest sense, as it just does not make any sense to do so if we use our intelligen­ce?

But again, our so-called people’s politician­s like it that way I suppose. Dr David Hill
