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 think it says more about the facade of what THEY and WE perceive Europe to be all about.
UK politicians have a love/hate relationship with the E:U. They always have !
But this vote...a daft idea from a sitting prime minister, just proves the point about what our MP's think and what the country thinks, and the vast disconnect between the two !
