Dumbing-down of Politicians

September 25, 2009

Why politicians are idiots It is easily overlooked that Representative Democracy, by definition, reduces and restricts the amount of instant intelligence available in political Parties. Wisdom inhabits the victorious Elect of the House of Commons. Why should they consult anyone? Unless a General Election is near. Thus, it is no surprise that current Parties seem [...]

“Don’t Lose Your Right to Vote!”

September 21, 2009

A Reminder This morning I received a reminder-form for our annual, compulsory Registration of Electors. I posted the first one. Now, I must do it again. The form annoys me. (These days, most forms do.) It is part of government dishonesty, duplicity and double-speak. Although our governments, and all three major Parties by long association, [...]

The Conservative Party and Democracy for British People

September 21, 2009

The nice Party now? Not being a follower of the Conservative Party, or any other, I presumed it was just late in reporting to the nation about its vision for democracy. Remember the Democracy Task Force? Did not the title suggest a determination to restore and defend real democracy? As author of The Electors Charter, [...]

THE PRICE I SET

September 20, 2009

What is the right price for anything? Whatever someone will pay. So says the commercial gospel. Price is external. You put its result in your pocket. Value is different It is internal. With honesty and goodwill, you can “spend” both and still have them. As values, they grow the more you exercise them. So with [...]

Illness Has its Merits

September 20, 2009

Our brain can be our best friend It always surprises me how many people blame their memory, their ability to learn or adapt, their lack of imagination, confidence or courage. The evidence of the brain’s brilliance is so abundant. They should pause and consider how considerate their brain is! It gives early warning of trouble. [...]

GIVE ME A PRICE FOR PARALLEL DEMOCRACY

September 15, 2009

You tell me! What value would you place on a Magna Carta, from the People to elected rulers, for 21st century democracy? An interesting question, as, sooner or later, I shall be offering First Newspaper Rights for The Beginning to some newspaper. And only The Beginning. So, I thought it would be a good idea [...]

IT IS PARTICULARLY FORBIDDEN…

September 14, 2009

A Warning to Politicians The Electors Charter carries this warning at the beginning: “IT IS PARTICULARLY FORBIDDEN for any copy of this text, in whole or in part, in any form, to be made by or for any European politician, official or anyone acting as an assistant.” Why? For these reasons: 1. Political thieves are [...]

Who Owns Us?

September 10, 2009

We return to the fundamental question. Who controls what is originally ours? Do we? Whoever controls, in reality, owns. Our argument about the EU is not primarily about Europe …but who absolutely governs our government and thus our sphere. It is about keeping the State to the status of paid assistant rather than autocrat. There [...]

THE PEOPLE’S DECLARATION

September 9, 2009

A draft for public approval The Electors Charter exposes the cause of the decay of Representative Democracy. It re-establishes our inherent rights. We are sovereign over governments, not vice-versa. It introduces Parallel Democracy as an inventive back-up system, giving citizens massive extra leverage. This Declaration associates Electors world-wide against misgovernment and abuses of power of [...]

9-9-9: The People’s Declaration

September 9, 2009

Is 9-9-9 important? 9-9-2009 is the date of this posting. To some individuals, that is significant. Indeed, the number 9 has interesting characteristics. 9 + 9 = 18. When those digits are combined, they equal 9. The same with 9 + 9 + 9. And 9 + 9 + 9 + 9. And so on. [...]
