Why Is one form of democracy good for the UK judicial system and yet for political purposes, we have another?
What would happen, if the judicial system were implemented as the cornerstone of the political system?
To HS... The reference I make to 'judicial' (model) democracy wherein, one may be called to serve as a juror. ie, that during one's voting lifetime. We can be called upon to perform effectively, a public duty.
If this were applied to the political system, then it would mean a term of governmental office.
Because no one can be sure when, if or indeed when they will ever be called to service and because the term of 'official capacity' would be a one off calling. I would suggest for example, that many loopholes for potential abuse would be closed. Thus minimising if not erradicating corrupt practices or the opportunistic open door to it.
In assessing global models of 'political' democracy* I can recall not one instance wherein the path to government and real democratic voice of the people. Is not centred around careerist politics.
Of course the judicial system would and should remain independant. (unless the people decide differently)
That will teach me to 'proof-read' in future.
