What do you think is wrong (or right) about Scotland's democracy?
Over the past six months, Electoral Reform Society Scotland has been asking these questions and more as part of our Democracy Max inquiry: 'What would the good Scottish democracy look like?'
Now it's your turn. What do you think makes a good Scottish democracy? On December 4th, we will present the ideas and suggestions so far, and listen to what you think about the issues raised.
This first phase of our inquiry is themed around 'Sovereignty of the People: How do we return more power to the people?'
It includes consideration of turnout at elections, accountability of politicians, the declining membership of political parties and the opportunity of local democracy, amongst other things.
These seem to be things we have all discussed at length on this board and it might be interesting to be involved in the discussion
