This is a normal post I dunno.
Was reading about Burke a while ago, and what stuck with me is the concept that people elect other people to make the difficult decisions, about which they have the time to read, to think, and to debate.

I admit that this is a pretty important thing we have to decide, but else do we have plebiscites on - the death penalty? I think his point about the whole referendum being an arrogation of responsibility rings pretty true.

This is a normal post I'd agree
If I thought that any of them had actually been debating it. None of the parties seem to have been interested in debating it until UKIP backed the Tories into a corner.
