Public meetings have been more transparent than ever thanks to remote access and participation adopted during the pandemic. But now, as safety protocols are lifted, there are signs the political establishment wants to go back to the way things used to be.

They join Adam Reilly to make the case for keeping politics accessible and transparent moving forward.
