/// Sir David told the Radio Times: "What we mean by Parliamentary democracy is surely that we find someone we respect who we think is probably wiser than we are, who is prepared to take the responsibility of pondering difficult things and then trust him or her to vote on our behalf.” ///
/// Chiming in on immigration, Sir David said: "It’s very easy, as we all know, to be very tolerant of minorities until they become majorities… you find they’re actually telling you what to do and they’ve actually taken over the town council and what you thought was your home isn’t. I’m not supporting it, I’m saying it’s what it is." ///

//// Once again my "So ..." rule is proven - the rule that states - If you are going to argue a point by stating something that the original poster didn't actually say, and than argue as if they did say it, you must start your post with a 'So .. '. ///
/// You have prefaced your response with a 'So...', and then proceeded to disagree with something that Ichkeria didn't actually say! ///
I no longer debate with you, but I feel on this occasion that I must respond to your usual pomposity.
Who cares a damn about your "SO..."rule?
I certainly don't, even if you are totally incorrect as you normally are, firstly I did not start my post with a "SO" I started it with a "OH".
At no time did I argue a point by stating something that the original poster didn't actually say, and than argue as if they did say it.
Because what I actually said was "Oh so you also think".
I can only be criticised for assuming what Ichkeria thought, taken on the evidence that he openly supported Sir David Attenborough's view that the British people are not wise enough to make such important decisions.

Based on your quotes AOG I don't believe that the candidate needs to be respected, is necessarily wiser, nor is necessarily taking on much pondering as they may well be just party following lobby fodder. They are just being paid a salary in their chosen field. That said I'm unsure what "Parliamentary Democracy" is; does it differ from normal democracy ? If everyone doesn't have a free vote then it isn't really democracy.
As for the second quote you give, it is food for thought, and debate.
