The rise of legalism in all its quarters is a positive for all of us. It promises to enrich our lives by taking notice of the ways in which things don’t work in our favour as they should. This is a level of attention to detail that we’ve been sorely missing.

However, there are now many people that oppose this, and they feel their claim is legitimate. They don’t like the type of it, or the cost, or the mode that exists because of it. It’s like they are feeling something alien and it makes life seem strange.
The total point is not that we should abandon all attempts to judiciously enfranchise the entire population of the UK, but that it should be masterminded by the collective will of society. The institutions we have don’t need to be overridden by it, and our voices still matter.
