Reinvigorate British democracy by addressing political and economic inequality.
Certain individuals have greater influence over decision-making and benefit from unequal outcomes. This undermines a central democratic ideal: that all citizens, regardless of status, should be given equal consideration in and opportunity to influence collective political decision-making. (IPPR)
"This would be a time for citizen assemblies around the country, deliberative councils and debates laying out the alternatives and the facts slaying the fictions once and for all, leading to a referendum to let the voters decide what parliament cannot. The electoral commission says 31 October allows just enough time; let them better police the next process to stamp down on abuse. Employ the independent organization Full Fact as arbiter of accurate information." (Polly Toynbee Guardian 12/4/19)
