Ask the PM on YouTube

Emma Mulqueeny and I are going to hook up next week - we were kindly introduced by Euan Semple

I was having a a rummage on her blog and came across this.

I want to have a look at this a bit closer - but it looks interesting. I then went over to Samizdata to see what they had to say on the PM -

Samizdata on Gordon Brown

None-the-less I do believe that we have to find a more grassroots approach to political engagement.

Why?

'Cause grassroots creates meaning, top-down creates a lot of pissed off people.

Then the question is what are the outputs? The tangible benefits of questions to the PM on YouTube or is it just a talking shop?

Emma has some interesting comments on her blog concerning this.

Living in a participatory culture, we need participatory politics that demonstrates something tangible.

Politics should be about serving the greater good
