Zarah sounds similar to Zack Polanski, the Greens leader, with her messaging:
“The truth is, Reform is just another wing of the political establishment,” she said. “Funded by billionaires and aristocrats, fronted by a millionaire stockbroker, an ex-public school boy, Nigel Farage. He is peddling racism to distract us from the real agenda: more privatisation, more deregulation, more handouts for the rich, more cuts for everyone else.”
I agree with you but at the same time I recognise that in practice most people voting in elections aren’t primarily looking for evidence of democracy in a party’s inner workings, even though perhaps they should be.
Agreed. But what people look for and expect. Is also often the result of media bias.
So the answer may be to counteract the idea that party democracy is important. By showing how it’s leck leads to non democratic government.
Approx 60% of voters opposed the very ideals the right stands for. And voted for politics in opposition to such ideals. Yet again and again we have parties running the nation Is low 30s % of support.
More recently even the majority of party members are strongly opposed to the ideals of the current government. Yet anti democratic party processes allow the party to keep the current leadershi0 and policy structure.
This idea needs to be shared everywhere.
