I don't know if you have missed it... but somehow judges are now "the enemy of the people" (sorta standard the Sun really) but now the rhetorics of the -government- (not all MPs) is quite messed up atm.

I don't really see how that is a conspiracy theory, it is in plain sight.

Because it all blamed on "Ireland" "Remainers" whatever, and when such groups air fears it is "project fear".

I'd hope that anybody invoking "the people" would actually try to get everyone on board. Not just a subgroup and then shout down everyone else.

As for immigration bullshit Charlie Brooker's newswipe section from ages ago, well it hasn't really changed.

But, I'm all for more input of everyone. The ROI referendum system is quite sound, citizen groups work really well. I am just extremely wary of the "UK first WILL OF THE PEOPLE" sort of cherrypicking.

'They' have captured the executive, so the logical consequence is for 'them' to try and weaken the other branches of the balance of power in the state, the legislative (death threats to MPs) and the judiciary. This is obviously an extremely bad idea, but what isn't in all this?
