November 5th Campaign
20-07-09
Wilt is inviting ideas for an alternative display for the traditional Guy Fawkes celebrations. In tradition the November event (apart from scaring my dog to near death) recognises the superiority of democracy above despots – Wilt signs up to that idea, even he prefers Gordon Brown over Adolph Hitler. However, what exactly (in relative terms) is the difference between MPs in general and representing the people, and more to the point doing it without ripping off the public in tax and expenses scams. Indeed the Labour government approach to the economy is the biggest Ponzy scheme in history.
The traditional burning of Guy Fawkes seems to have less not greater relevance now given the exposure of MPs and their greed. Albeit Guy had a different agenda, his desire to clean up politics seemed noble to him and whearas he is history, the need to gain greater transparency is ever present with those less than Honourable members. What better way to change culture, bring about a new dawn in political life and to sweep out the old hypocrites than reframing, realigning and re-dedicating the 5th November to reaffirming ACTUAL democracy, transparency and simple TRUTH. As it were, politicans say it as it is, do the business, get paid a reasonable wage, no expenses above that essential and are ACCOUNTABLE, in every sense.
So, lets have some ideas – perhaps we could burn an effigy of Ed Balls? Mmmmm now that my dog would really enjoy, and me
