Democracy? Greeks vote to leave euro - ignored. Now this slap in the Boatface

[thenews]

Remember the Greek vote on whether to leave the euro? And the Greeks said, Yep, let's do just that.

And then, the people's man (you can tell 'cause he doesn't wear a tie) PM Alexis Tsipras gave the Greek people the middle finger and ignored them. Remember that?

Well, in another slap in the face for democracy the vote to name a British research vessel has a clear winner: Boaty McBoatface. The Natural Environment Research Council (NERC) have take a leaf from the Tsipras book and flipped the public the bird. They're ignoring the vote.
