29.09.2009 // by Guy AitchisonGuy Aitchison: I just wanted to draw your attention to an excellent article by philosopher Stuart White in reaction to Brown's hopeless proposals on democratic reform:
Far-reaching and fair reform of the political process is not going to be delivered by this Labour government. This is not just a matter of Gordon Brown's alleged circumspection. It is because it is difficult for the leadership of the party (as of any party) to approach the issue in a way that isn't distorted by calculations of partisan advantage.
So for those of us in the Labour party who do want fair-reaching and fair reform, the time has surely come to join and support organizations that are struggling for this outside, and against, the conventional parties. It's time to put our energy behind Power 2010.
The article appears in Next Left, the blog of the Fabian Society. Read it in full here.
