Limiting the spread of democracy

If our Labour government is so keen to spread democracy around the world, why are they so keen to develop communities at home?

Even going so far as to give first place to Communities in the Department of Communities & Local Government

These communities are profoundly UN-democratic

Many people have no choice over which community they are assigned to

Communities hold no elections

Their leaders are self-appointed

A nice, colonial model for our leaders to treat with
