I did not know this YouGov ,as what or who it is...or does it do the polls in good way , my bad ..
Pretty much agree with your view . The " sovereignty" might itself mean maybe something different now, than like 100 or 200 years ago ? because the " globalization" big corporations / rich entitys that now days operate and use power around World ?
Oh, I think there is no fault about "who" ran the poll...
I think "YouGov" is no different than any other polling service. And in theory, polling "should" work, it is a simple matter 'counting' really... same as "voting." (But we can see just how well the "status quo" afficionados have made it impossible to count votes anymore.) This is much the same. It's almost as if the only way you can reliably trust polling is to do it yourself.
I think it complicates things when we ignore the fact that unlike in pre-industrial times, more power is now economic, as opposed to traditional or political.
Even if we get our favorite 'personalities' in office... They cannot 'master' anything... Politicians don't "bring change" any more than actors "make" the movie. That's why I call it "political theater" (and making "appearances" for the "game" is "political thespianism.") But Machiavellian characters who do that actually "create" "appearances" with the help of the accursed. (Pardon that hint of self-recrimination... for I cannot pretend that I haven't ignorantly allowed myself to propagate "appearances." I despise "falling for it," but I have.)
