Which is why it works

2019-10-17 22:33:19 UTC  

It forces the government to actually do it's fucking job

2019-10-17 22:33:27 UTC  

Or we purge it in blood

2019-10-17 22:33:47 UTC  

the british constitution avoids the civi war, simply public opinion will sway towards parliament or monarch, after which the losing side will have to concede

2019-10-17 22:33:52 UTC  

I believe the two major reasons for the public voting for brexit were anti immigration and so the Eu can’t change our laws

2019-10-17 22:33:54 UTC  

it won't explode into war

2019-10-17 22:34:06 UTC  

although, saying that, there was the spanish civil war...

2019-10-17 22:34:08 UTC  

And fuck the krauts

2019-10-17 22:34:19 UTC  

which had a similar dual government to britain at the time

2019-10-17 22:34:26 UTC  

Always fuck over the krauts

2019-10-17 22:34:28 UTC  

hmm..

2019-10-17 22:34:35 UTC  

Well, back to work

2019-10-17 22:34:51 UTC  

Dual monarch doesn’t sound like that bad an idea

2019-10-17 22:35:17 UTC  

Parliament and monarch that is

2019-10-17 22:35:55 UTC  

@S K E L L Y Ivanthenotsoterrible I think there was a multitude of reasons, mostly anti-status-quo, anti-immigration, pro-labour, sovereignty, anti-EU-federalisation

2019-10-17 22:36:12 UTC  

Yeah but they were the two main

2019-10-17 22:36:37 UTC  

@Edelgard von Hresvelg its been a pleasure

2019-10-17 22:36:51 UTC  

Cherrio

2019-10-17 22:37:08 UTC  

Like what the Romans did

2019-10-17 22:37:38 UTC  

Whenever they were having a bad time they’d elect a dictator to basically fix their country

2019-10-17 22:38:01 UTC  

those may have been, but its clear parliament has no intention of fulfilling those desires.

2019-10-17 22:38:53 UTC  

with regards to Romans, I'm no fan of their system, it may have been the longest civilisation in recorded history but I have my doubts

2019-10-17 22:40:11 UTC  

although I'm not read enough, ask me about the british or umiyads and I can tell you a fair amount

2019-10-17 22:41:38 UTC  

but parliament electing a dictators sounds like a bad idea, dictators have to be de-facto and from the public

2019-10-17 22:42:22 UTC  

As I understand it, Rome had a nasty problem with dictators not always leaving well enough alone when that which was needed to be completed, was.

2019-10-17 22:42:29 UTC  

Not the parliament

2019-10-17 22:42:37 UTC  

Come to think of it

2019-10-17 22:42:46 UTC  

It’s like the current monarch

2019-10-17 22:43:01 UTC  

The queen can take power whenever necessary

2019-10-17 22:43:10 UTC  

And if the public disapproves

2019-10-17 22:43:16 UTC  

Shes out

2019-10-17 22:43:24 UTC  

The 2 kings you are mentioning is basically how the Spartans operated

2019-10-17 22:43:31 UTC  

I think monarch is the best 'dictator' because it is their children who will inherit the country, and so is in their best interest to keep the country friendly

2019-10-17 22:43:49 UTC  

but monarchs have to have competition

2019-10-17 22:43:58 UTC  

that's where parliament comes into play

2019-10-17 22:44:06 UTC  

Yeah it turns out the Brits have the tools to fix everything but won’t use them correctly

2019-10-17 22:44:14 UTC  

That's a huge gamble of legendary proportions for the Queen to exercise that power though.

2019-10-17 22:44:25 UTC  
2019-10-17 22:45:10 UTC  

yes, but if she has public support, then there will be no issue so long as she rapidly arranges new general election

2019-10-17 22:45:17 UTC  

Exactly
