Taking the Party out of Politics
Andrew Brown
34 episodes
9 months ago

A podcast about understanding

  • how politics is supposed to work,
  • why it isn’t working as well as it should be,
  • and what we might be able to do about it. 

Because, by understanding a little bit more about how things are supposed to work, and why they are a bit messed up, we might be able to get things to work a bit better. Perhaps even a lot better.

Citizens' Assemblies

Get a small group of people together. Maybe 100. Specially selected to be representative of the range of people and perspectives across the country. Young, old. Rich, poor. Different races and genders. Different political views.


Give them all the information about a topic. Let them ask all the questions they need to. Let them discuss it, and think about it. Let them hear from the experts, and from the people who really care about the topic.


Let anyone who wants to, listen in. Publicize the process.

Publicize the information and the ideas and the background to the topic.


And then: ask that group of people to make a decision on that topic, on behalf of all of us.

A decision which is nuanced and informed


And then ask our elected representatives to follow up on that decision.
