"Our Parliament is a Dead Parrot. Write now and ask your MPs what they are being paid for, since they are not doing their jobs." Peter Hitchens "We have ceased to be a parliamentary democracy. There was no military putsch. Nobody passed an Enabling Act allowing rule by decree. But the House of Lords and the House of Commons are now the Dead Parrot Parliament. They are dead because they do nothing to hold the Government to account. They are parrots because, when asked, they obediently confirm decrees Downing Street put into effect, sometimes weeks before. We used to jeer that the so-called parliaments of Communist and Fascist states were mere rubber stamps. Well, we cannot jeer now." Read more . . . All this has been discussed on UK Column News.
