WHO RUNS THIS LAND NOW? … Nov 20th,2012

By

James Bredin

Is it the High Court, the politicians or the media moguls that rule?
As they pump out their pious pompous propaganda so uncool,
We are denied death-with-dignity and referendums they say,
If you really want some change, you better learn how to pray.




Our politicians seem to disappear for a month or two,
Can't see their empty seats in Parliament because they have a rule,
Though they like to see themselves on TV doing their stuff,
We can't tell them, that without binding referendums; it's not enough.




And you don't count that much because you so seldom vote,
Because without referendums; they have you by the throat,
The idea of binding referendums is strictly forbidden,
Why do the Swiss have them, but not us and I'm not kidding?
