Gr8 convo. One q, though: wouldn’t the first-past-the-post policy that makes leaders vulnerable also be given to short-term thinking because they are afraid that experimentation that’s good only in the long run would lead to near term discontent and defections? @DavidDeutschOxf

To carry through a beneficial long-term project which will do harm in the short term, a party has to persuade the electorate that this is worth it. And that is exactly how matters should stand: if they can't persuade a plurality to try it, it shouldn't be tried until they can.

This is so lucid, it really has changed my mind. One query. At 14:06 Deutsch refers to removing / modifying bad ideas in the light of experiment *or criticism*. After all, we don't subject all theories to experiment - usually criticism is enough. But in the political version...

..."criticism" continues post-election: govts often remove/modify policies under pressure from cabinet, parliament, interest groups, foreign govts etc. Isn't the Brexit gridlock a continuing process of criticism that could reasonably dismiss an idea before the "experiment" stage?

This discussion highlighted to me how the referendum was a Trojan horse, having the semblance of democracy, it usurped and sabotaged this world renowned democratic parliamentary system. All those who once admired it look on aghast, except maybe Putin, who is probably chuckling..
