Really interesting.Drawing the line between creating a system where people have genuine agency to come up with their own ideas based on education vs too much focus on expertise based suggestions from ‘left-leaning west Sheffield types’ seems a key issue.Are we still ‘sick of experts’?
Vital reading and deeply disturbing for anyone in South Yorkshire who values democracy or trust in our authorities.
This piece by @richsulley.bsky.social, about Oliver Coppard's much-heralded Citizens' Assembly on the Climate Emergency, is explosive 💥
Richard was one of the people who set up the assembly, but says that what's happened since "should be a point of shame" ⬇️

Sounds really interesting!
Let the people in: how an innovative people's assembly is reinventing participatory democracy in #Sheffield, and giving power back to our neighbourhoods.
