      Its not different. I usually get doctors to advise me on medicine & carry out treatment, lawyers on law & pursue it etc

      .@joneudaimonia Referring to, eg, economists as 'elites' doesn't mean I suddenly know better about the economy & ignoring them will be fine.

      There's experts & there's experts. Economists have a spectacularly bad record of predicting the economy. (1/2)

      .@hws5mp @joneudaimonia An economist's incompetence would be a good reason not to trust their advice. Big noble sounding themes are not.

          Is largely assumed due to confirmation bias. Ppl who've studied aspects of how EU works are still more likely to know things abt it

          Many Euroskeptics are EU experts too: do their views demand the same respect then?

          There is still no workable plan from Eurosceptics coz nothings been thought through on a practical level.

          People should be able to cause deep systemic change through democracy, but pacing is a good thing.

          Yes! By having qualified ppl break stuff down, holding them accountable, making choices from there.
