What's the point of democracy?

Both Tory and Labour party leaders supported Remain campaign. I thought opposition parties are supposed to provide alternatives to the ruling party. When three biggest parties in Britain united to support Remain, what does that tell you about the facade that is democracy?

I don't think true democracy has ever existed. The ancient Greece slaves or women couldn't vote. With regards to the Brexit vote, it was won by the newspapers spreading misinformation for their own benefit using xenophobia as their messenger. It's Shameful.
