Rory Stewart on why Citizens' Assemblies should appoint the BBC board - We all want to know that the board members of a public broadcaster are there on their merits, not because they're doing the bidding of one political party or another.

You wouldn't push a surgeon aside to do the operation yourself because hospitals rely on deep layers of earned skill. Yet, the people running our government win popularity contests to gain power. Are we trusting our entire society to the right system?

There is a way to see exactly when politicians are ignoring you for their funders. We do not need permission from the government to start building this new constitutional pillar. The campaign for real accountability begins with us.

Centuries ago, 50 random citizens ran an entire city to stop the rich from taking over. They used a system Aristotle claimed was the only path to true freedom. Why did we swap this fair lottery for a system that keeps the same few people in power?

Aristotle noted that you cannot define a knife without knowing what makes it good or bad. This applies to us too. Goodness is not an external judgment from the sky, but rather it is built into our makeup. We are living this drama, yet the modern world has forgotten it.

The survival of the loudest online Ever wonder why the internet feels so toxic? It all comes down to how social media environments reward outrage. It is a battle for your attention where shouting always wins, so the internet morphed from a democratic dream into a massive shouting match.

Most people think democracy is just about voting, but there’s a "depolarisation machine" hidden in our history. By bringing back the jury-style model of representation, we can finally reduce the power of lobbyists and special interests. It’s time to balance the stool again.

Most people call astrology a pseudoscience, but are we even testing it correctly? Spencer Greenberg tried to find a correlation between sun signs and life events and found absolutely nothing. But then the astrologers told them why the tests were wrong, and things got interesting.

Politicians represent their funders and the powerful before they ever think of you. What if we stopped electing them entirely and used a lottery system instead? See why regular people make better decisions than the career politicians.

Polarisation is eroding the institutional safeguards that once balanced power in modern democracies. As partisan lawmakers manipulate election rules and district boundaries, citizens are turning to new reforms, like Michigan’s model, to reclaim fairness and accountability.

“He doesn’t even have to look at them” If Reform UK and the Scottish Conservatives have a chance to elect Labour’s Anas Sarwar as First Minister, will they do so? Andy Maciver explains why he thinks that they won’t have a choice.
