Pride in democracy seems to be something we can trumpet about our state. But this is not the case these days. We had elected a leader, Mr Blair (although not me, I wasn’t in the UK at the time), then his second-in-command Gordon Brown, stabbed him in the back and took the position of Prime Minster for himself.

So this tyrant of ours, this two-faced snake, has proven consistently that he can neither lead us efficiently (as Chancellor he sold gold at one of the lowest prices ever) nor represent us properly. He puts his own opinions forward in parliament, despite the fact that public opinion is the opposite (the debate on assisted suicide is an example of that).

Now we have this Megrahi affair. Publicly, standing next to the leader of Israel, he said he was repulsed and angry about Mr Megrahi‘s welcome in Libya upon his released, and now we have private letters being made public that say something quite different:

Documents released today on the Megrahi affair state that the Foreign Office minister Bill Rammell had told the Libyans early this year that neither Brown nor foreign secretary David Miliband “would want Mr Megrahi to pass away in prison”.

When are we going to face the fact that our political system needs to be overhauled?

We need to vote a leader and a deputy into place. If they resign, then a national election should be triggered. We need to have the ability to hold referendum’s easily, so -OUR- opinion is what is carried out as law. We need to hold our representatives to book for misrepresenting us. If they put their own opinions forward in Parliament then they need to be punished, especially if they are contrary to the general opinion of their electorate.
