Re: [Staffslug] [Fwd: PRESS RELEASE - Public Whip - http://www.publicwhip.org.uk/byelection]

I agree with the idea Richard I just question what use it is? I have, in the past, campaigned on what could be called political issues - I've set up petitions about national government edicts, I have stood up and spoken at public enquiries, I have literally tramped the streets delivering leaflets - all to no avail :-( The fact is that we do not live in a democratic society just the false imagined one that we have. If there were some way of truly influencing what local and national government did then I would be 100% for it. Crewe and Nantwich is a bit too far from me anyway ;-) You do however, have my full support from where I am :-) For the record, I am 100% against ID cards, 50% for more nuclear power stations, 100% for grants to enable individual members of the public to install solar voltaic panels at their own homes. -- ============================================== Kevan Farmer Linux user #373362 Staffordshire
