Discussion Draft of A More Democratic Constitution

1. I'm not a lawyer. But hey, MPs get help when they write Bills. So long as we can be specific about what we are discussing, the numbering system will probably do for now.

2. I'm not a genius with software. You can request a pdf copy by email with a personal message through the facebook page. OR, if you want to stick with blogger;
If this is too small and you are using Windows, you should be able to zoom in by going to the settings button in the top right hand corner of your screen. It looks like a little gear wheel-cog thingy. Another option is to try Ctrl+

3. It ain't poetry. I'm not a poet. Someone out there in psychospace is.

4. Yep - bound to be full of illogical inconsistencies. It's kept me awake at nights for a year and my brain is frazzled. Let's fix it. Democratically.

5. The important question is - will you join in and say what you like or hate about the ideas, sentiments, model, suggestions and other stuff this draft contains? At the very least, say whether or not you support the idea of a new constitution.

6. No, it won't be easy to get the idea of a new constitution accepted, but if we don't try, it definitely won't.
The more we talk, the more the idea will become a possibility. Some posts will be dedicated to strategies.



7. I'm not in a hurry to re-type and re-format this. If your comments are not troll-like, they will be valued and kept so after a while we can try and "poll" opinions, ideas etc. I know some of my favourite bits probably won't survive. Maybe none of them - I'm all for democracy.

8. Let's agree that any Constitution proposal will contain some assumptions about what is desirable or offensive. If you really hate it, and find it really, really, really offensive, please don't be personal when you say so.
