There was no recall vote on independence

Which for me is arguably more important a matter than Brexit

You totally have recall systems in place.

It would help if you read the first paragraph...

Recall of MPs yes.

```The Recall of MPs Act 2015 (c. 25) is an Act of the Parliament of the United Kingdom that makes provision for constituents to be able to recall their Member of Parliament (MP) and call a by-election```

Yes, so why not a policy too?

What are you so deathly scared of?

It's clearly not a subversion of democracy.

You have it in place for your own representatives for goodness sakes.

Referendums and elections are non-comparable. They are two different systems with different purposes.

Absolutely comparable. One elects a person, the other elects a policy.

One is just more direct in the working of the people on the government than the other.

You're being *very* silly.

We do not have flip flopping referendums like we do on elections, now that would be silly. With referendums we vote and the majority wins, not a difficult concept.

Why would it be so silly?

Two different systems with different purposes.

Non-comparable

With an election the majority wins.

It can flip flop.

Why not for a referendum?

And again. Both public votes, both for public opinion on how the government is to be run, both majority votes.

It's absolutely comparable by those variables at the least. Quit trying to stonewall and headsand.

Yes, I suppose we should just re-call the vote once an opinion polls shows a shift in public opinion. We'd get nothing done with constant referendums, so we vote, accept the result regardless of your since then enact the public's mandate

No no no silly!

Have a recall vote.

IF there is public petition to do so.

If the policy stands, no harm no foul, if it fails, democracy in action.

Democracy is a flawed system

If the majority NO LONGER wants the policy to go through, why stop them from voting against it?

Majority support is irrelevant

That's a violation of democracy,

So?

Democracy is a bad system

@Deleted User Of course it's flawed silly. All systems are flawed.

More flawed than others then @DrRisen

Democracy tends to be the one that garners the most power and strength based on how we stand today.

End of story. Your governmental system got cucked.

Now sit your ass down before democracy calls you a felon and invalidates your vote. <:really:591181753625083905>
