This is a screenshot of the article mentioned in the post. The title is "The performance of accountability and the treatment of experts by politicians: UK parliamentary select committees during the COVID-19 pandemic." The authors are Felicity Matthews and Matthew Wood. The journal name is Policy & Politics.
As trust in experts seems to be eroding, the findings of this project, published in @policy-politics.bsky.social are reassuring. Matthews & Wood analysed questions asked to experts by legislative committees in the UK. While they expected politicians to ask populist questions, this was actually rare.
