"Hard to see how a person can claim parliament itself democratic (even representative wise) when the system that elects those reps and the govt it stands for is not. " Its not a "person can claim": It's Parliament itself that claims. ...when the system that elects those reps and the govt it stands for is not. Of course: which is why Left wing Brexiters are delusional. As Keith so helpfully put it above: "FPTP is fascist, it guarantees minority rule. " If Brexit was to have a chance of doing anything positive at all you would have had to have a representative UK electoral system in place, otherwise all you would be doing would be handing more power by means of the FPTP "guarantee" to a minority rule by those fascists... Which is exactly what has happened. Of course the majority of Brexiters aren't left wing at all, but I'm sure they thank you all for adding enough of a percentage to helpfully tip them over that winning line.
