Today we should know what's happening in the three bye-elections that took place yesterday one of which *may* trigger a leadership election for the Labour Party and given they are in power in the House of Commons by extension the Prime Minister.
Often people talk about and debate the widening of the Democratic Process, what's it really for and really what are peoples reasons for wishing to gain further engagement with it.
Do people really care about what's going on?
That's kind of relevant here in the UK with moves toward lowering age limits to vote to 16 although you'll note the difference between how adult they are to vote and smartphone content restrictions!
But is Calvin right? Are all some folk wishes to get more engagement just about getting more for them rather than what's just and fair apart from if the way the country is being run really is representative of the people?
