Because, what is the difference between him and those people so DESPERATE to leave their country, that they will cling on to the underside of lorries to get here? They are so desperate to leave their country, because if they stay there they will be killed.

I have no idea who came up with those two different forms of "democracy" but no one of any credibility actually uses those terms.

I only had a single teacher in my primary education who pointed this out so I guess if people don't read on their own or don't take classes in university that cover these things, they can't even know what form of government they live under.
