Being an informed voter means, at the very least, researching recommendations and endorsements from more than one source and reading both the pro and con arguments to decide how credible they are and to examine the merits of the underlying improvement or change being sought. It's a lot of work, which most voters don't bother to do.Jackie Fuchs
Copy
The requirement upon the sovereign to 'advise, encourage, and warn' means that the Queen must be well informed. The weekly audience with the Prime Minister is not to discuss the weather but to talk about the most pressing problems facing the nation. An ill-informed monarch cannot do that and would fail in a key constitutional task.Jacob Rees-Mogg
Copy
What is news? It's hard to quantify. Certainly news has changed completely, and the morning shows are not really designed to bring you the news, except to tell you what happened overnight, and the rest of it is a kind of magazine mentality - a little bit of this, a little bit of that. It's harder to be an educated and informed citizen.Harrison Ford

I have a nostalgia for the years I was growing up and experiencing new things for the first time - so the late '80s and early '90s are always fascinating to me. Those were the times that I was being informed about a lot of my tastes, and so the memories are fused with a lot of emotion.Jeremy Scott

The Sewell Commission was an opportunity to move away from discussions of 'culture wars' towards a balanced, informed discussion about race and opportunity in the United Kingdom. I know most people in this country want that, too.Kemi Badenoch

Those who argue for Brexit are wrong, and that is because they have not been properly informed about the costs.Jose Angel Gurria
Copy
There are very important questions around the climate issue that folks really don't get to.
