Shaping the debate???
Some bloggers are clearly trumped on some serious self delusion, kudos for those who are going to "mix it" with politicians (Wow!) but hold on one startlin' moment. Hurling from the ditch is one thing but the real way to make an active difference in next year's election (most likely next year, could be sooner I suppose) is to work politically in the intervening years and actually put your ideas on the line.
I have a blog, and I will be blogging the election doubtless.
But, I'll be doing it on the basis of being as ever an activist.
Keyboard warriors of the world unite?
I don't bloody think so.
What we need is non-voting election anti-patthy blog for large percentage that won't be voting. Who can DIY instead.
if memory is correct the Hub failed, fails and is failing.
Under-subscribed, under-used, under-nourished.
Who sponsored the hub, paid for it's building and does the media
commercial market-management?
Is it State/Council/Private concerns?
If it is a private sponsor do they have a link to political parties?
One big fan of the Hub, who I am accquainted with is a failed
councillor and works behind the desk of a manistream political party.
Be careful with whom you share your ideas....
