The massive march on Saturday showed that there are hundreds of thousands of people in this country looking for a better future. Millions more have signed a petition seeking that future from our politicians. Almost alone the Independent group of MPs has come out of the broken mess that our political parties find themselves in. Labour and the Conservatives are divided. Theresa Mays hold on power is tenuous. Jeremy Corbyn must never be allowed to take power. There needs to be an alternative.
Thousands of people have signed up to help the Independent Group. Thousands of us are waiting patiently for our time. That time is now. There is a lot of good will, experience and most of all enthusiasm out there for something new.
Now is the time to fix that broken politics.
Volounteers must be sought to arrange meetings in each constituency to set up local groups. If there are gaps or too small numbers arreas should be combined. This needs to be organised urgently as the continued crisis in Parliament means we have to be ready for that challenge.
I am one of many waitng to help. I want to help. I know others do as I am part of a facebook group of some 400 people ready to act. We have no direct contact with you. I am sure there are others.
My plea is simple. Organise.
There is a future to win.
I am waiting and not for Godot!
Shalom,
