Stakeholders in the governance framework

When you destroy something that has patently worked well; when you remove a large group of people from a position of trust and inclusion; when you leave behind, in its place a residue of politicians all smugly believing that they have reinstated legitimate governance and democracy, you might want to ask a few questions.

The last few months, at the end of 2008 have demonstrated without a shadow of doubt the critical value of non-political input into the governance of the UK. Not just nationally, but down to Local Authority level. What scares the politicians is any intrusion into what they believe are their sole areas of authority - decision making. What truly concerns them is that anyone else has an opportunity to cast a vote in that decision making process.
