Do Something About It

http://www.dosomethingaboutit.org.uk has just issued it’s first vote to members, to choose the issues it will attempt to tackle in the next few months.

Their boilerplate text :

I’ve just cast my vote to decide DoSomethingAboutIt.org.uk’s campaign priorities for the coming months. We can either wait for political parties to tell us what the next election is about, or we can take the initiative and tell them what matters to us. By logging on to www.DoSomethingAboutIt.org.uk, you can let politicians know what you want to see happen- and if they don’t listen, then you can get rid of them by using DoSomethingAboutIt.org.uk to link up with thousands of other progressives across the country. Check out the website yourself, and cast your vote today!

Hopefully a worthwhile attempt at grassroots democratic lobbying.
