Demos think tank proposes UK citizens panels to combat populism and restore trust in politics.

Demos, a cross-party think tank, urges the UK government to implement citizens panels to combat populism and restore trust in politics. The proposal suggests creating demographically representative panels, chosen randomly, to provide input for "mission boards" overseeing the government's top priorities. The think tank also calls for greater use of citizens assemblies to address complex issues and moral questions, increasing public participation in policymaking.
