Public Jury

Additional Information

A 1,000-strong "public jury" should be selected at random to draw up a "public interest first" test to ensure that power is taken away from "remote interest groups" which currently treat the public with contempt, according to the group's declaration. The call for a public jury has been signed by 56 academics, writers, trade unionists and politicians from Labour, the Liberal Democrats and the Green party.
This e-petition has been raised so that non-politicians can raise their voice to support the motion.

The government will not have any power of veto over the Public Jury.
