あらすじ・解説
It's not that people don't care enough. Absolutely not.
But when we campaign about single issues, we are separate. The thinking is not (obviously) linked up. And it too easy for government to nod, and to simply ignore.
It's not that we need more consultation.
But consultations can be simply a way of allowing the public to let off steam before the government does what it was going to do anyway. We need meaningful, engaged consultations, which look at the real impacts.
It's not that we need more online petitions.
But a collection of (potentially) uninformed online votes is too easy to justify ignoring. We need to demonstrate that our opinions are properly informed, and that we understand the wider context.
We need to do more as individuals.
We need to ensure that we are better informed. And to ensure that our elected representatives know what we are better informed.
We need to use our systems differently.
From Citizen Assemblies, to Citizen Scrutiny, to Citizen Government, to Citizen Information, to Citizen Thinking.
