This is true Liberty when free born men
Having to advise the public may speak free,
Which he who can, and will, deserv’s high praise,
Who neither can nor will, may hold his peace;
What can be juster in a State then this?
ALL PAGES ON THIS SITE ARE CURRENTLY BEING CREATED, THEY ARE, MOSTLY, INCOMPLETE, PLEASE BEAR WITH US AS THE POLICIES AND IDEAS ARE FORMULATED AND COMMITTED TO THESE PAGES FOR DISCUSSION.
We need to point out that we are not to be associated with a fringe right wing political group called “British Democratic Party”, they are neither democrats nor are they representative of the overwhelming bulk of the British people.
We believe in real democracy, not the fake type of alleged democracy we currently have or that claimed by dictatorships and both extreme right and extreme left governments.
British Democracy is intended as a new political force, determined to put the power back in the hands of the people who live in these islands we all call home. The current political system is a hypocrisy not a democracy, the people have been given the vote, but in essence this was a sham to silence calls for wider democracy. The first past the post system we have for selecting MPs and Governments is unfair, undemocratic and does not serve the people or the nation.
WE FULLY INTEND CHANGE THIS AND MAKE THESE ISLANDS TRULY DEMOCRATIC
Full Proportional Representation is not the solution, it creates a broken political system that finds it hard to govern properly or effectively, however, variations of the PR system are the way forward, a system that ensures people feel their views and voice are heard, that they are represented and that we have as full a democracy as we can have without every adult being involved in every decision made by Government – totally impractical.
We know that change cannot happen overnight, that is why we have a 25 year plan to make changes to the way these Islands are governed, with the full involvement, cooperation and approval of the population, for too long the people of these Islands have been ignored and under represented, it is time for this to change.
We believe that the number of elected representatives is simply a gravy train and we can most certianly manage with far less if we have two elected legislative houses and other roles are also put out for the electorate to elect into positions of power and influence. There are too many local authorities that eat up public money on duplication and inefficient services, there has to be a better way that serves the people better, and with the help of the people, we will find that better way.
The last 30+ years of UK governance has been a disaster, from John Majors’s government immorally joining the UK to the European Union without a referendum to the failures and scandals of the Blair Years, then last 14 years of failed leadership. Now we have a Government that was elected with just over 34% of the cast votes but around 20% of those that could vote – that is not Governance by democracy in the slightest.
Our political system is a shambles, unfit for purpose and needs root and branch reform.
Please feel free to read what we have added so far, we encourage and welcome constructive feedback on ideas, please, be polite and respectful. We may not agree, but that does not mean we need to insult or deride others views.
