So your respect for democracy is ...well zero !
Democracy is a double edged sword. It can cut your enemy, or it can cut you.
If you look back on history, dictators piggybacked democracy loads of times to get in to power. I'm not saying UKIP is the Nazi party, but you can see where this thing is heading or can head now.
Democracy gives a voice to the well educated and to the dumb. Depends which side has more people.
Democracy is it's on worst enemy.
