This isn't how Democracy works
Due to France's NO vote on the EU Constitution yesterday, Downing Street are showing signs that a referendum on the Constitution in Britain is not going to happen. Now, this is very dangerous. The way Democracy works is that the people decide, but Mr. Blair seems to think that if you are not going to win, you should not hold a referendum. So, instead of the British people deciding what will happen to their country, they will only be allowed to have their say if it agrees with the government. Mr. Blair needs to do some serious thinking.
However, it is not so important in this particular matter, as France have voted no, and the Dutch are about to, the EU Constitution is dead. Who knows what will happen next?

Ummmm, I think you'll find that we're supposed to be a democratic country. The British Constitution says so, therefore, it shouldn't be the governments decision whether or not there is a referendum.
Ours
Our constitution does not explicitly say we are a democracy. It's just a tradition.
Smartarse, I was bluffing
