However, even in a country like the UK with highly trained and knowledgeable officers, a breach of human rights can still occur. This is why laws and policies as the Human Rights Act 1998 exist. The Act makes it clear that certain rights are given to all UK citizens and if these rights are broken by the public services then an individual has the right to take the service to court and challenge its actions. Human Rights are a key part in every Human Beings day to day lifestyle.
In addition, the Populist Party built a platform that clarified their goals. These included the demand for a “free ballot and a fair count in all election”, a “graduated income tax”, and the condemning of “the fallacy of protecting American labor under the present system” (Document C). These goals that were established identified the growing need for political leadership to be altered, especially for the reasons mentioned in the Populist platform. The Populist Party gained followers by calling people together and influencing them to take side with their platform. Some of this was accomplished with newspapers, which taught the principles of the “People’s Party to citizens.
Robert Dahl and Charles Lindbolm suggest a pluralist view of democracy suggesting that pressure groups are beneficial to democracy.

Whether the objective is getting out important information to those affected by the crisis or presenting a narrative to the public about the actions that took place, the media and their outlets are going to play a major role. It is certain that there will be a number of agendas placed on the table as well.

Maddox further maintains that there is an understanding that democracy seeks to find the truth and those citizens within a democratic system have the right and freedom to do so. This is where the lines can become blurred within some democratic systems, when governments seek to withhold information, deceive citizens or limit the control citizens may have, they can be seen to be pushing the democratic boundaries.
