"So basically we have been ruled by a democratically elected Government since 1832"
Really?
Women got the vote when exactly - or doesn't democracy include that particular section of the population?
"I know that neither Maths, History or General Knowledge are your strong suit Jom"
Certainly isn't yours.
The fact remains - and as yet responded to is that our particular versions is like Orwell's equality - some have more democracy than others - depending on which particular rung on the ladder you occupy.
Our democracy is based on the idea that at election time - they promise, once the elections are over, they forget those promises until the next election, when they promise again - and so ad infinitum.   
Expecting an equal share of the benefits wrought from my labour and those like me and an equal right for my voice to be heard and my childdren to be educated has SFA to do with "envy" - it's called "democracy"
You really are a cliché ridden, dyed-in-the-wool establishment arse-licker
