    I think it's called mass hysteria. Like those teenage girls at pop concerts in the 70's :emoticon-0102-bigsm

    No because, regardless of intelligence, some people are just pricks <laugh>. And the majority of people are selfish to some extent, so it wouldn't work.

    Although, in a hypotherical world where you could absolutely guarantee that people would vote for the best of the country and not in their own self-interest, then I supose the best thing would be to only allow the most intelligent / informed about a certain topic to vote on it.

    The words Jacob Rees-Mogg and intelligent in the same sentence is an oxymoron.

    Keeps vintage Bentley dealers in work too, along with 1950's tailors. The man is a one man economy in himself.

    I liked what Nicholas Soames had to say about JRM:
    'An absolute fraud, a living example of what a moderately cut double-breasted suit and a decent tie can do with an ultra-posh voice and a bit of ginger stuck up his arse'.

    All I was asking was how Farage will sort out the boat problem ...

    ... as it's his only policy you'd think someone would know.

    Land ownership was the criterion for voting, it had nothing to do with intelligence. It would be great if we could have a system where stupid peole didn't get a vote, we might actually get some decent politicians that way, instead of what we have.
