Direct democracy enables electorate to supervise politicians and to intervene on self-chosen issues.




it is time for

RULE BY THE PEOPLE!

USING DIRECT DEMOCRACY



We need a democracy "toolkit" which enables us to:

Put forward a proposal for nationwide ballot on any issue of government if many voters agree with the idea.

Bring our state's constitution up to date so that everyone can understand our rights and responsibilities. Define the role of citizens, MPs, parliament, judges, police, press and monarch in our modern state. Debate all of this in a measured way and vote on the results in binding referendum of the people! Then we can know WHERE WE STAND.

Veto unwanted law and government plans (for instance, selling off public assets) using referendum.

Sack any politician who has lost the confidence of the electorate, without having to wait for the next election ("recall" by the voters).

Similar in Local Government.
