Not many. We have a bias system, where jerrymandering means old borders are changed to benefit the party in power. We are principally a 2 party state, giving no choice to the electorate. Our country has a government made up of Neo-Cons, Catholics and Opus Dei. The cabinet has sold out every manifesto promise upon which it was elected, is borrowing £20billion p/a to fight a religious crusade against Islamm which the citizens never wanted, and made this clear before it began with the largest marches seen since the Poll Tax. The effect, backbench MPs voted for a war they didn't believe in because they might have the whip withdrawn, the PM and his cabinet lied to the country, and yet is Tony Blair stood in the Hague next to Slobodan Milosovic? No.
The sooner we reinstate the monarchy the better.

quite, our variety of government is a Republic, however we do have components of democracy in it. the two words have become intertwined over the years, yet, interior the uncomplicated sort, a Republic and a Democracy are 2 finished distinctive varieties of government. In a democracy, the inhabitants comes to a decision how issues are to be accomplished. basically, that's mob regulations. A Republic is the place the political power is held by skill of a physique of voters. that's a consultant variety of government. human beings vote for Representatives. that's no longer mob regulations as in a democracy for the human beings do no longer immediately vote on subject concerns. In our shape, our variety of government isn't noted something yet a republic. interior the u . s . a ., we've many greater rights than different international locations. we are able to make exciting of our government, make protests in public and say despite we desire. in many countries interior the international, you would be put in reformatory or worse. authentic, it seems that out 2 significant events seem eggheads at situations and desire to rule us with an iron fist, yet we've the marvelous to pick to be in any celebration we desire, or pick to be self sustaining if we desire. and that i would not desire to stay in the different us of a than the u . s . a .!

I think we could have ousted Bush in a "no confidence" vote a long way back. If that's the case, then, "God Save the Queen".
Hey, maybe if we ask her real nice and apologize for the Revolution, she might take us back, because its pretty embarrassing being an American citizen with that idiot that apparently half of us reinstalled.

Odd that living in a republic precludes some people from thinking - maybe that explains what's been happening...
What I'd like to borrow from the UK system is proportional representation and no-confidence votes that bring down the govt.

Well there is NOTHING the SOCIALIST LIB-TARDS in the United Kingdom can teach this country...
I mean let's just look at the U.K. and what a collection of loser they are...
Had to be bailed out in WWI and again in WWII because instead of spending money on arms and a useful army there was the welfare state that had to be paid for...

There is no such thing as a real democracy. In a real democracy, everybody could do anything they want to do. I think you know that just wouldn't work.

Not much. Our poodle Blair has allowed our foreign policy to be run by that cretin in the White House
