Our Spectator Democracy Costs the Earth

The fact that politicians and the mainstream media have to keep reminding us we live in a democracy should be enough to raise suspicions.

Broadly, this means that every four years we might vote for one group of arbitrary people over another.

But could it be that the word and the idea needs to be repeated endlessly because people now no longer feel they actually live in a democracy?

Host Ross Ashcroft is joined by the co-founder of Extinction Rebellion Dr Gail Bradbrook and author and campaigner Peter MacFadyen to discuss how democracy is failing the planet and the people.
