Where do you get that idea?
In a 'true' democracy, If the mob/majority wish to castrate all gay men, that is what would happen
With modern communication technology we're starting to probe the limits and validity of democracy
Certainly of capitalism

She cried because, well, she's a woman and that's what they do. I hope she saved some tears for all the families who have lost loved ones as a result of ending "stop and search." She was a terrible Home Secretary and an even worse Prime Minister. Time for some balls!

Teresa May was given an impossible job, but she was the ONLY one prepared to take it on. Boris, Gove, Farage (even though he's not actually part of the government, although he likes to act as he is) all did a runner when the Brexit vote was announced. Why? Because their fragile ego's couldn't deal with such a toxic issue as Brexit. They knew what was to come and the only person who was prepared to stand up to the plate was Teresa May.
