The UK is getting Dangerously close to becoming an Elected Dictatorship under Boris Johnson,
says Ken Clarke ..The Con Party are now more Nationalist than ever in his lifetime. Oh dear.

Boris even closed down Parliament or tried to, Unlawfully, when he first grabbed hold of the reins,, "prorogation",, to show his new found power. That seems a little power crazy. Think we have seen an example of that before.

The UK has been an elected dictatorship for as long as I can remember. There is nothing unusual about government breaking their promises to the electorate and it's certainly not a recent phenomenon. They can always cite an excuse for doing so, but it doesn't make it any more forgivable. Basically, we elect MPs, a government is formed from them which promptly goes on to do exactly as it wishes for five years.

I currently have nobody to vote for. In the UK there is realistically only two parties who can form a government. I usually cast my vote by voting against the party I would least like to see in power or for the one I believe would do the least damage to me, businesses and the economy. It's hardly a ringing endorsement of democracy, but it's the best we've got. But I don't expect any politicians to keep to their pledges and quite honestly what any of them tell me before an election looms has no bearing on the way I vote whatsoever.

It is almost as though you live here despite your denials

Do not feed the troll people

Boris gets very angry if the Courts or Parliament try to interfere with his decisions says Ken.. He thinks that as the elected PM he should not be impeded in any way. ..Well Spotted Ken.
