Why does the EU seem to be working very well for me, and Mr Darmstadt, and some others on the board, and not for the rest of you? Is it because of you yourselves?

Originally posted by Mich the Tester View PostI'm not going to sit here arguing the case for Barroso; he is elected indirectly, but as you say it's very indirect.
Besides, I'm bored of all this tulipe. If Brits want to leave the EU, go ahead; I can hedge my bets with dual citizenship anyway.“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment

We could have a vote every 7 years perhaps:
Should the current Queen remain as monarch or should the monarchy be abolished (or an alternative 'No' option).
Then when a monarch dies, the accession of the new monarch could be ratified by a popular vote. I really don't see how anyone who believes in democracy could object to this.
At most, one referendum per monarch about whether the monarchy should continue when that king/queen dies/abdicates would be reasonable.Originally posted by MaryPoppinsI'd still not breastfeed a naziOriginally posted by vetranUrine is quite nourishingComment

Originally posted by d000hg View PostIt seems rather silly to abolish a reigning monarch, you can't just have a vote and then phone the queen and say "sorry, you're fired".

Originally posted by TheBigD View PostIt's not difficult, of course. The motives behind the referendum are completely undemocratic. After all, if the firs vote returned a "Yes", would they hold another to ask "are you sure". Of course not.And what exactly is wrong with an "ad hominem" argument? Dodgy Agent, 16-5-2014Comment
