Direct Democracy Ireland

ction promises, promises that never materialise. A common complaint about representative democracy is that it creates a distant class of law-makers who will often collude with vested interests, or become so detached from the lives of the general public, that they will make decisions that the public do not support. By contrast, in a Direct Democracy system, such corruption of decision-making is impossible if every citizen is an equally powerful participant in the process. We in Direct Democracy Ireland along with the Sovereign People of Ireland are seeking the Constitutional Power to veto new legislation, initiate new laws and amendments to our Nations Constitution using People-initiated Referendums, in contrast to the current system of Government only initiated Referendums.
