Background
Public PMQs would boost democratic engagement by giving ordinary citizens a direct line to the Prime Minister. An independent panel would select a diverse range of questions, asked live in a televised session. This open format ensures voices from all walks of life are heard, holds leadership to account, and builds public trust. It's a bold step toward a more transparent, inclusive democracy—one where power listens to the people.
