Just been listening to the BBC Six O'Clock News and there was a piece on the Countryside Alliance's challenge against the hunt ban. One grizzied old member of the CA spoke thus:
"If we are wrong about this, then we live in a country in which the House of Commons, acting completely by itself can do anything it likes without ordinary people having any redress at all"
Erm, isn't that the way democracy is meant to work? And ordinary people do have redress, that's to throw MPs out at the next election.
