A Christian recently said to me: "As a Christian, I am not sure to what extent I am a democrat."
For me, I am a democrat through and through and want the wishes of the people to be respected by politicians. I accept that this means that on occasions my views would be over-ridden.
Of course, there are possible problems in giving unfettered power to the voters via referenda but these can hardly be worse than what our out-of-touch politicians have laid upon us with their liberal elite agendas over the last 40 years.
