@Storin Not true in the slightest.

2019-12-30 00:39:26 UTC  

tbh the uk was one of the slowest nation to adopt anything resembling democracy

fucking france became democratic before the uk

2019-12-30 00:39:44 UTC  

Literally had 3 civil wars over this, many religious wars, a couple of world wars, and the biggest vote in our democratic hsitory 3 years ago, that was reinforced with the GE not 3 weeks ago <:shrug:349342983763656705>

so your nation is incompetent and cant keep its government in order

2019-12-30 00:40:20 UTC  

😉

2019-12-30 00:40:23 UTC  

The parliamentary system is weird. And it’s even weirder in the UK.
I wouldn’t say it’s more democratic that the US.

2019-12-30 00:40:24 UTC  

Disagree. Germany was later than the UK and Russia as well

2019-12-30 00:40:31 UTC  

@Storin Excluding the fact the UK isn't a democracy but a constitutional monarchy.

2019-12-30 00:40:33 UTC  

Actually our government is answerable to people far more than most nations <:PepeLaugh:565528391336329216>

2019-12-30 00:40:40 UTC  

@Sham00e mixed bag

2019-12-30 00:40:41 UTC  

If you don't believe that ask Corbyn <:pot_of_kek:544849795433496586>

2019-12-30 00:40:48 UTC  

germany has had democratic states since before england existed

2019-12-30 00:40:57 UTC  

Germany is the least democratic in Europe imo

2019-12-30 00:41:04 UTC  

germany wasnt in a united form till late so it shouldnt be counted

2019-12-30 00:41:11 UTC  

same thing with italy, very very old democratic states

2019-12-30 00:41:12 UTC  

the volk law is more important than individual sovereignty

2019-12-30 00:41:14 UTC  

Anyways the argument of "regional representation" is quite braindead

2019-12-30 00:41:19 UTC  

People vote, not land

2019-12-30 00:41:33 UTC  

the thought of people like andrew being able to vote is braindead

2019-12-30 00:41:47 UTC  

If more people live in area x than area y then area x should obviously have a bigger say in the democratic process

2019-12-30 00:41:59 UTC  

yeah is that how that works andrew?

2019-12-30 00:42:09 UTC  

The UK is definitely the most advanced in this regard, but that is probably because we've been pushing it since the days of Magna Carta <:shrug:349342983763656705>

2019-12-30 00:42:18 UTC  

so does that mean that those people should have greater say on for example how the government spends its money?

2019-12-30 00:42:26 UTC  

However it isn't perfect and is definitely flawed still

2019-12-30 00:42:31 UTC  

so does that mean that they have a greater say on where the government allocates its budget?

2019-12-30 00:42:41 UTC  

I call BS on that. IF democracy was enforced in the UK the overwhelming majority of policies/decisions wouldn't have happened.

2019-12-30 00:42:44 UTC  

so does that mean that they can spend more on roads for the cities than in the country?

2019-12-30 00:42:51 UTC  

despite the need of the country being greater?

2019-12-30 00:42:56 UTC  

"Greater say on for example how the government spend its money" this is pointless lmao

2019-12-30 00:42:58 UTC  

NAh Kizza

2019-12-30 00:43:11 UTC  

one of many examples and it shows that literal equal representation is retarded

2019-12-30 00:43:13 UTC  

see the issue is you are thinking direct democracy, direct democracies don't work

2019-12-30 00:43:19 UTC  

Did the majority of the UK vote/support joining the EEC in 1972??

2019-12-30 00:43:27 UTC  

"yeah fuck fixing that bridge, this city street has pot holes that need filling"
