Britain’s good-chap model of government is coming apart
The lack of a formal constitution in Britain means that a lot depends on politicians in parliament acting like good chaps, says Economist magazine. With the divisions over Brexit in both parties the political norms and self-restraint of an earlier period are lacking. As a result informal rules of conduct, and other conventions are being ignored, norms of British politics have collapsed with the situation created by the Brexit referendum vote. In another essay shown on this page the Economist points out that the chumocracy under Cameron gambled the future of Britain on a major issue with a simple 51% and you are out of EU vote, when even less momentous issues are decided in two stage process and super majority required.
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
