The main reason that the Government always gives for invading foreign countries thousands of miles away is that we need to bring democracy to that far off land.
I always believed that like charity, democracy started at home.
The Oxford Dictionary defines democracy as "Government by the People or their elected representatives"
We currently have 9 members of the Cabinet who were not elected by anyone (except ,that is, by Galloping Gordon)
Lord Mandelson "resigned" twice when shady deals came to light ,was given a peerage and is now second most powerful person in the Government. He and his fellow 9 peers who sit on the Cabinet have got there without facing the rigours of the ballot box .
Wheres the Democracy in that Gordon ? What a hypocrite !
Put your own house in order before you tell other countries how to run theirs and killing 100's of us and 1,000's of them in achieving something that we don't even have at home.
