Our demand: An annual public reckoning of those adjudged to have acted most against the people’s interest.
Each year we will publish a public longlist. On 31 December, a Notoriety Awardee of the Year — the person judged to have contributed most to fouling up the system — will be announced. In later years, a symbolic event may place a crown of thorns on an effigy of the awardee, underscoring moral accountability.
