People in this particular democracy do not decide government policies though. Only a referendum on every issue would be a full democracy and this is not a practical proposition. People vote for whichever party is closest to their ideals and most often have to compromise on some of their wishes. In the last election people did not even do that. They voted against what they feared most as none of the parties seemed to offer anything positive.

Anyway, in answer to the opening question, none at all.
