The push to give the say to "the people" over much derided experts is fatal.
First we had Brexit itself; where some ideological political and media amateurs poured scorn on all the experts warning it would be an act of self-harm. The people were persuaded, and we inflicted self harm.
Now Truss: the "experts" on her were those in the parliamentary Conservative party who knew she was utterly incapable. But the vote was given to "the people" (a few thousand payed up Tories), and look at the self harm inflicted just through her short disastrous reign.
We need a new system. Or we can carry on congratulating ourselves that we are being "democratic", while outcome after outcome should be teaching us a lesson.
People are just too easily manipulated by media, presentation and soundbite. The idea most people are making "decisions" at all is debatable.
You should read these 2 books JK.

Since nobody cares about Home Sec; Chancellor; Foreign etc Truss is constantly bunged into these positions by various PM's who don't care either.
Few noticed her lunacy - but some did (letter to The Times from top judges; the Rwanda silliness etc).
Most MPs saw how useless she was but the system allowed her to get into final two.
Tory members only saw her do soundbites and spout policy rubbish.
Now everyone can see she's completely brain dead.
She must be dumped. But who will replace her? |
