This is not the end of democracy. It ended long ago.
This is the point where democrats are walking around, naked,
They can do nothing but act as if they are the leaders of their countries.

he means that they should do 'pro bono' work

Channel tunnel rail link sold for £2.1bn to Canadian pension funds
Two of Canada's largest pension funds win 30-year deal to run High Speed One link between St Pancras and Channel tunnel

The Channel tunnel rail link has become the latest piece of British infrastructure to be snapped up by acquisitive Canadian pension funds.
Two of Canada's largest pension funds, the Ontario Teachers' Pension Plan and Borealis, the infrastructure investment arm of the Ontario Municipal Employees Retirement System (Omers), have paid £2.1bn to operate Britain's only high-speed railway line for the next 30 years. It is the first privatisation deal done by the coalition government as it sets about slashing Britain's record debt.
Other bidders are thought to have included Eurotunnel and two of its shareholders, Infracapital and Goldman Sachs, as well as Morgan Stanley's infrastructure fund, 3i's infrastructure fund and the Abu Dhabi Investment Authority.
The deal comes in a week that saw the Canadian government block the hostile takeover bid for Potash Corporation by the Anglo-Australian mining group BHP Billiton, and as the Canadian dollar, which has recently been boosted by strong commodity prices, reversed losses this week. It briefly regained parity with the US dollar today and rose against the pound after news of a fall in unemployment.
The RMT union slammed the rail link sell-off as "just another act of political vandalism on the UK railways". Bob Crow, the RMT general secretary, said: "The most modern section of the UK rail network has been sold off for a song in what amounts to nothing more than a fire sale of the family silver to prop up the financial deficit caused by the bankers and speculators in the first place.
"Even worse, the sale of High Speed One could pave the way for the busting up and selling off of Network Rail in a lethal re-run of the Railtrack disaster. That's what the train operators and their lobbyists are demanding as the dash for profits cuts across safety and drags us back to the poisonous cocktail that led to Potters Bar, Hatfield and a series of other rail disasters."....
