In the UK it seems like the government is quite happy to ignore the people aside from gesturing, and when the real decisions are made they listen more to their mates from Eton, who run banks and big business.
Either the Eton-conspiracy is less powerful than you think, or they have a bizarre concern for the health of the British people.
I apologize for the snarkiness, but really? Comparing the way that British politicians treat their constituents to the way that Qaddafi is literally gunning down his is pretty absurd.
Suggesting that the political situation in the UK is as bad as it is in the Middle East is a slap in the face to all those who have given their lives to overthrow brutal Middle Eastern dictators over the last two months.
