Declamation of democracy by Vahlenkamp

How did England become a democracy?

In 1721 Britain became a full constitutional monarchy, under George I, when a single parliamentarian (Robert Walpole) became head of government in the office of First Lord of the Treasury, which later became known as “Prime Minister”. By this time Britain had the largest and most powerful Empire in history and the British people were the freest in the world.

Finally the democracy came in 1918 with the Representation of the People Actwhich saw the size of the electorate triple from 7.7 million to 21.4 million.

Tower Bridge in the morning Fog from Shad Thames by timcp21

This is a one of the most spectacular mornings I have ever seen in London with Tower Bridge surrounded in morning fog. I have airbrushed out a post that was in the foreground otherwise this image has only a little bit of editing. A beautiful cold , calm winters morning in London.
