Isn't UK a democracy? Why then have the people not rejected the initiative? Ah, right - they haven't even been asked.

In a first-past-the-post electoral system (UK, USA), it always degenerates into 2 parties, which over time becomes entrenched and diverge from popular opinion.

A proportionally representative system in IMO better from this perspective.
