Public life is drowning in hate, and violence and harassment towards political representatives is increasingly being normalised. Unless we take responsibility for addressing this, the outcome will not simply be that the loudest voices and largest wallets win: democracy will lose.
A culture that tries to stifle dissent and arouses such anger is not just bad for politicians... it is also bad for the causes and campaigns that drove so many of us into public life, and on which we want to see progress.
