Representative democracies are in fact ‘elective dictatorships’ where governments are only accountable every few years at election time, in between they operate with little democratic scrutiny. Parliament in Britain and Congress in the US are weak checks on the executive. War in Iraq, if it happens, will take place without proper legislative scrutiny or democratic legitimacy. People power is the most effective way of reminding politicians that they will face re-election at the hands of the protesters.
Representative democracy allows politicians to use their judgement on behalf of the public. For reasons of national security, it is often not possible to give people all the facts about a particular situation. Anyway, the majority of the population are not informed on, and do not have time to consider, complex issues such as economics and foreign policy. Having a powerful executive allows decisive action to be taken quickly, consistently and coherently.
