There are many
problems with our political system, and with our politicians.
A quick example
might be that we are trying to achieve too many things
with just one vote every 5 years -
- select a good
local representative,
and
- select a party
which seems as though it could govern competently,
and
- select a manifesto
of what we want to happen.
Taking the Party
out of Politics is a new podcast from
Talk Together, exploring WHY the problems are problematic,
and HOW things could be different. |
|
Rather than concentrating
on the problems, we need to focus on creating solutions.
We need to work together to use
our electoral and political systems better.
Listen to Taking
the Party out of Politics, and be ready
to contribute your ideas about how things could be
different.
No one is as clever
as everyone, working and thinking together. |
