This is also seen within other UK institutions. For example, there are many documented examples of patients and families raising concerns about poor NHS care which are ignored often for years until an insider raises them. Likewise outsiders’ accounts of their patient experience is largely ignored, whilst patient experience accounts given by insiders, especially doctors, is given great weight, whilst ignoring the fact that because they are insiders, especially when ‘senior’ insiders, their experiences will inevitably be different from that of outsiders.
Agree, but Stewart is also a very good orator who holds people's attention.
I think one reason why non-Conservatives listen and often applaud him is because they like a bit of Boris-bashing and Stewart's utter utter disgust of Johnson is the cherry on the cake..
His father was in MI6 and Stewart likely to have links, if not a member through his diplomatic career. What I know of spooks and diplomats is that they are convincing, when they are careless with the truth. So Stewart comes with a health warning in my mind.
