Philip Blond's localism is radical and exciting

10 March 2010

"Blond’s platform on localism and connectivity is radical, probably prophetic and genuinely exciting. It could democratise access to services, ignite participation and fundamentally transfer power to the many from the few, if adopted pragmatically by the third sector.

"Localism isn’t new - it’s been the very thing for some time, both on the left and the right. It concerns itself with fortifying social relationships, devolving decisions and resources in absolute terms to citizens, thereby engaging the socially and politically estranged among us. Glueing society back together by empowering an army of Burke’s “little platoons”."
