    Well there’s a continuum isn’t there between asking everyone about everything and asking nobody about anything. So where are we on that continuum, because if the government just hold referendums every time they change any policy then they may as well not exist, and we might as well just have direct democracy (Which never works).

    So why should we hold a referendum for this, but not hold a referendum for example increasing the pay of railway workers?
