So Much for Rule by Consent
A post on EU Referendum
Refers to Charles Clarke, the Home Secretary, who has used the powers granted him by the Serious and Organized Crime and Police Act and has created a half-mile exclusion zone around Parliament for all unauthorized protests.
So much for rule of the people for the people, and rule by consent, in a consenting country by definition the people should and must be allowed full access to the law makers; it must be an open democracy, that is what consent means in a country where the people agree to be ruled by those we elect there is no need for powers to protect the lawmakers from the people. These little Stalinists cannot be allowed to become a ruling elite with special conventions that only apply to them, locked up in their own version of Red Square, surrounded by heavily armed police to keep the people who have to live under and pay for this dictatorship at arms length.
I wonder what the Conservative and Liberal opposition will make of this move, if past experience is anything to go by they will make very little out of it, thus clearly showing that they acquiesce with the further removal of our rights and the instillation of a separate political class.
