We are now effectively ruled by the politicians in the Supreme Court, who unlike the Supreme Court judges in the US who have to place themselves under public scrutiny in the Senate (HoL), but are subject to being elected by elected politicians. In the UK they are appointed. IMV we are now ruled by an 11 person #SupremeCourtJunta. The only parallel I can think of is the 1967-74 rule by the 3 colonels in the #GreekMilitaryJunta where they installed themselves in a coup to save the people from themselves.
IMV the trashing of our unwritten constitution which has trashed our democracy has been done at the government level so we can no longer consider the UK a democracy or a constitutional monarchy
, where the Queen was not required to give her Royal Assent to it:
1. The speaker & the Tory rebel MPs overturning SO40 where it is the elected government that decides parliament's business, not the minor parties, this trashes centuries of constitutional president & makes governments & our democracy unworkable.
2. The fact the 'impartial' speaker introduced this and is no longer 'impartial' trashes centuries of president for our unwritten constitution & make him now the most important arbiter on deciding parliament's and government's business.
3. An important part of our former democracy is anybody can apply to the courts to have a decision made over a point of law & many governments have had to improve laws as a result, but judges cannot and must not ever make new laws on the fly (that is parliament's job), to suit their political views and then apply them retrospectively to make something illegal. IMV this firmly puts the #SupremeCourtJunta in the territory of despots who run banana republics.
4. The LimpDims / CaMoron fixed term act is a disaster & means that once a government is a minority it can be kept as a zombee government for as long as the minor parties think they can't win a GE or the 5 years is up. We could end up with no effective government (other that Ginia Miller & the #SupremeCourtJunta) until May 2022. The only other country that has for years had no functioning government is that paragon of law abiding virtue, Somalia which we are now going to unfortunately be compared to.
I knew with May's undermining and trying to set aside of the 17.4m #Brexit leave voters that anti-democratic forces were being unleashed. Corbyn & his cabal have been maneuvering with their 'short term unity government' to use it to set up his Marxist dictatorship & I can't see the how or why this is going to end or when, if ever, & if or how a working democracy will be restored?
A general election won't solve anything not due to where the country is split, but because if it is the remain parties that lose (and they probably will) they will never accept the result & decocracies can't work if the losers never concede defeat. Where elections are like modern sports reasonably civilised rules based contents, like democracies but both are also brutal winner takes all contests. By politicians replacing democracy, we all know what comes next, real no rules, blood sport gladiatorial contests. Like I said previously in hot civil wars we all have to pick a side as fathers & sons, mothers & daughters & brothers & sisters all end up split & end up fighting on different sides, it is classed as the most divisive, brutal & bloody type of war there is.
Does anybody know any ultra-remainers? If so, please can you get them to explain to me the attraction of being a colony of the foreign Brussels' dictatorship, beyond the promise of the reward of 30 pieces of silver from the EU and changing your name to Judas? Franco would have been proud during the Spanish civil war where he was attacking Madrid with four columns with a fifth inside. The EU's fifth column within the UK is much bigger.
