I am amazed - really quite amazed - at some of the Brexit opinions I am reading here on DU

100. Could you perhaps summarize what the problems are in the establishment itself?

Are they the same problems as those in the US establishment? Do both countries' establishments' communicate and do business with each other? Create the same problems with their respective general worker populations?

Are there definable sub-groups one can include in the circle of power called the establishment?

I want to know how any voters of either country can force their respective, dispersed and inaccessible establishment to deal with its own problems when voters get almost no representation before the establishment but their own votes, or bodies, or voices -- none of which are not regularly heard.

In the US it's been proven that public polls that voice majority opinion have been routinely ignored across four presidencies in this country. Were those administrations part of the establishment?

No one can agree what change looks like because the people who need it do not have their hands on the levers of change nor their voices in the halls of lawmaking or in capitalist boardrooms -- nor do they know who make up the establishment.
