Has this really been "the most open and transparent government" in NZ history? For the @TheSpinoffTV I put this (in)famous claim to the test, examining the evidence – and asking senior journalists (anonymously) for their views. https://t.co/EXXB3SvHDV

@henrycooke @henrycooke if your curiosity is piqued, the video or transcript of Art O'Leary talking about his experience of the Irish CA addresses your concern directly and more besides. https://t.co/6keCLDY2Yi

We agree with former PM Geoffrey Palmer - Parliament needs to be strengthen as a check on executive government. More MPs, independent select committee advisors, etc. https://t.co/8SDzrTytac

Great to see @WgtnCC using a citizens assembly to help develop its LTP. Is some participatory budgeting being offered too? https://t.co/fgVTVf7bYh

[Miriam Levin @MiriamLevin1]

Really interesting @IPPR report on public attitudes to democracy and how to build the case for democratic reform by @RyanSwift93 @pathwithanr, @harry_qp. Most interesting bit was the need to frame democratic reform as a way of creating better policy 👇

[Mauricio Mejia @Mau_MejiaG]

[trustdemocracy.nz @trustdemocracy]

A valuable guide based on experience for people who want more democratic and effective ways of agenda setting and decision making. Tools like @UsePolis for enabling the consideration of issues at scale can surely complement citizens assemblies.
