after exchanging a few emails, the local sovereignty idea is starting to take shape into an actual, practical campaign idea.
name ideas -
campaign for local consensus government
campaign for real democracy
consensus works
twin track approach
1) giving people involved in local campaigns (who are almost certainly being frustrated by what passes for 'democracy') both a tool to help with their campaign and a broader goal that could stop the kind of things they're campaigning against happening again.
2) giving people who have seen true democracy working (such as climate camp) a mechanism for spreading it
and bringing these 2 groups together
firstly with a questionnaire / mapping project of campaigns in london
communicating with people with a general desire to achieve real democracy (anarchists and others that might have experienced consesnsus decision making at places like climate camp)
then a meeting / conference entitled something like 'from single issue campaigns to real democracy'
