That was my initial reaction.
But, how many newly elected councillors have sat and nodded sagely as mention is made of the constitution and standing orders and then, in a quiet moment, surreptitiously looked them up on their phones.
I guess that was Bramwell speaking at the end of the X video. She didn't gain the higher ground.
Post elections, there should simply be a familiarisation period.

“It’s my area. I didn’t want people getting involved when they shouldn’t be getting involved. Throwing a rock and ending up with a 10-year jail sentence.” - Green councillor Mothin Ali on helping quell the rioting in Harehills, Leeds.

(2/2) State govts will do anything to spur aggregate GDP growth, whereas #councils are closer to the people, and thus closer align to the people's needs.
By eliminating Australia's state govt and increasing the number of #localCouncillors, #democracy will markedly improve.
