Dawlish Discussion

Do you know how to join it? What is its constitution ? What will it do for Dawlish? Who else will join and how much time must they devote to it? Who is going to pay the membership fee?

Suggest you ask 'call me Dave'.

I was a member of The Big Society. Until the diet did the trick...

I see that 'call me Dave' is this week doing some more publicity on his Big Society idea. Makes me think that if he is having to do a relaunch that he's received advice that he and The Big Society have got a problem. Don't know about anyone else but at the moment I just get the impression that the Big Society is treated as just one big joke by many in the country.

On a more serious angle, I am concerned about the 'well meaning but amateurs' aspect of what I think is being proposed via The Big Society.

I am sure many councillors are well meaning but that doesn't mean they know what they are doing, does it? (and I am sure that applies all over the country and not just in Devon!).

Do you see what I am getting at?

I think it would work in cummunity type places ..not sure about Dawlish!
