  1. That's an interesting take, and well argued - a genuine pleasure to read! My counter argument is that we already have a political class that like to hide away and avoid engaging with the public. Do we want to give them more excuses to only meet the public in highly controlled and stage-managed setups?

  2.  @Qeztotz  does this run the risk of politics becoming a competition on who can mobilse the most thugs, rather than who can bring the best policies?

  3. I am now firmly against it. The weasels already like to hide from the public We don't want to give politicians from any party more excuses to hide!

  4. ​ @XAVR_ for a bit of context, the Financial Times are more left wing on tax policy than this Labour party. There is a lot of room for valid criticism of Labour economic policy!
