The Reaction to Brexit Is the Reason Brexit Happened

It seems that the fundamental issues here is direct democracy vs representative democracy. There is an age-old issue of whether each individual citizen should indeed be able to vote on each individual government decision. It hardly seems fair to label someone who doesn't believe in direct democracy (or representative democracy for that matter) as not believing in democracy altogether.

This article seems to do a slight-of-hand where it equates critics of direct democracy as undemocratic.

And it does seem in this case that the populace supported Brexit, but a poll of the representatives would have shown the opposite.

Excellent article.

FTA: If you believe there's such a thing as "too much democracy," you probably don't believe in democracy at all
