🗣️ Deliberative democracy on assisted dying: “It isn’t too late.”
@rafaelbehr in @guardian today explores @kimleadbeater Assisted Dying Bill and ‘the big opportunity being missed’ to use deliberative democracy.

Great to talk to @rafaelbehr for this piece on how public deliberation could help tackle morally & politically complex decisions, like whether to legislate in support of assisted dying at end of life.
Give it a read! @involveUK

It increasingly feels like there's an opportunity for Labour to turn its missions for government into *national missions* that large sections of the public feel part of.
A short piece on what they've done, why it's not enough, & the change needed:

Last year I was commissioned by the UK ministry of housing to write a report on the demand side-drivers of the housing affordability crisis.
After some election-related delays, here it is. (1/13)

@simonjduffy @Demos @involveUK Didn't take it as disrespect - think it's a really useful challenge!
Understood, I can see how focusing on Westminster in this piece of work reinforces a narrative that that is where decisions should be made, albeit with the public involved. Happy to discuss offline too!
English
@CalumDGreen @Demos @involveUK Thanks @CalumDGreen and I mean no disrespect to @involveUK @Demos
I guess I just think we should use every opportunity to reinforce the fact that how decisions are made is secondary to where they are made. We need to keep underlining the UK’s Hyper-centralisation crisis.
English
The intent of this @Demos @involveUK is good.
But my worry about these hopes for Citizen Assemblies is that instead of building participative democracy from the grassroots it reinforces the power of Westminster and undermines the case for #devolution.

Throughout the first 100 days of the new government, we're looking at where the opportunities lie for putting everyday people at the heart of how decisions are made.
Give the series a look - some great reflections from across the @involveUK team & beyond!

🤔We are curating a thought leadership series about opportunities for participatory and deliberative processes in a shifting political landscape following the 2024 general election. 🧵👇

👌 This is something to get behind. “if government wants to be trusted by the people, it must itself start to trust the people.” In conversations at our weekly street demo-meters in election run up, people thanked us for being there, & conveyed deep distrust in current politics.
