We popped the question
Recently, one of our supporters put the Greater Manchester Mayor on the spot. Liza Ward asked him directly: "Can we have a Citizens' Assembly for Greater Manchester?"
His answer? Despite making supportive noises, he ultimately gave a typical, non-committal politician's response. The whole exchange was on camera, and it proves what we already know: real change comes from the bottom up, not top down.
Trust in politics is at historic lows, and we need to upgrade our democracy ourselves. We need a system that puts ordinary people at the helm. Nurses, builders, and shopkeepers, selected like a jury, making decisions we can trust.
