Public Intrests Flashcards
(4 cards)
KU: if a pressure group is popular with the public they’re more likely to be successful because the govt might have to act upon the groups demands to save their public reputation
even if they don’t agree with what the PG is asking. For example
KU: however lots of public support doesn’t mean that a PG is guaranteed to be popular
because sometimes the govts opinion is more important so they don’t respond. For example
A: this is important because it means that even though public support can make a PG really successful
it’s not guaranteed
E: this is an important factor because no matter how much public support your pg gets it doesn’t determine whether the govt listens to you or takes action regarding your interest.
