I have lots of personal animosity towards the political class in this country, particularly Fine Gael and Fianna Fáil, but I can still acknowledge that we have some durable democratic institutions that allow us to theoretically get rid of the politicians who fail us. The issue is not that we don’t have democracy but rather is that we don’t exercise our right to democracy in a sensible manner as evidenced by how we repeatedly re-elect the same two parties who have given us the housing crisis.

Scandinavia, UK, Spain, Netherlands etc. aren’t full democracies, they don’t elect their head of state. And the UK’s upper house of their parliament isn’t elected either
