------------------------------
We are the British populace. They are the voted in Parliament. They represent us. The powers exercised are the ones granted by law and common sense, they are forced to adhere to these rules by the populace, who, on a radical policy (Like say the German Enabling Act) there would be a public outrage, thus forcing the government to stand down.
