I think a person who looks at the Internet right now to find out what people are thinking about prorogation sees a much more democratic space.
Why I'm not a Pollyanna is because I see the downside of that, which is, of course, quality control. Tomorrow I'll be attending a meeting of the new public health ethics committee that's been set up by David Butler-Jones, and I know that one of the issues they're concerned about is the public health impact of the Internet. It's not that our kids are getting obese using the Internet but rather that they're getting all kinds of nonsense information about health.
All things being equal, it's the same thing with politics. There's a lot more information out there. It is therefore more democratic and perhaps more neutral, because it's harder to control by established interests. But you probably have a lot more quackery.
I think lowering of the entry cost is something that does have a positive impact.
