Are you aware of the PeopleVsParliament movement who are also trying to push for a peoples charter?

I have voted against the charter.
It has some good suggestions but overlaps policy proposals.
I feel the author should start threads on individual issues.
The reason petitions do not work is the current govt attitude to them. Under a proper peoples democracy I would advocate petitions as set up on here as the primary driving force for reform and new policy suggestions and implementation, similar to the Swiss system.
I am starting a thread for a referendum on keeping the monarchy. I am opposed.
Trying to use the monarchy to kick start the charter above is hopelessly naive.
Scrapping complete parliaments is a non starter. Right of recall is better.
The FPTP electoral system will have to change. It perpetuates the status quo. Clegg was an utter fool trying to bring in AV.
