Freedom
it is so important |
Relax, you are free to think, no partisan bias, this is a political party-free zone....
Here we have introduced an Agence Presse Européenne style Coffee Shop where people can send in their views and at least read our views on topical developments, General Assembly activity and relevant links to information on other media.
Update on General Assembly Content and where we are going...
 Hector McNeill |
Hector McNeill, Director of E-Mancipation comments on the state of play at E-Mancipation and describes the most recent developments.
"First of all I need to apologise for the delays in getting this site moving. As an entirely voluntary initiative activities often take second place to others but I believe that readers will now begin to be rewarded for their patience."
"The General Assembly content is building up and we have several new pamphlets and propositions to post. To some degree we are posting these to coincide with topical events since this helps people understand their significance. However this introduces a somewhat random bias into the topics posted as opposed to any bias in their content. However, we are now replacing this regime by what I describe below."
"Naturally pamphlets and propositions are designed to be fairly short and to make a specific point but from the emails we are receiving there is a paucity of additional information available, even on the Internet and even through extensive Googling, for people to make more satisfactory enquiries and explore the concepts we are presenting so as to shape their own thoughts and to determine their own views on the matters covered."
"Indeed, research undertaken by Agence Presse Européenne only confirms this point of view within the British media where there is insufficient coverage of what seem to be matters of concern to most people. It is the aim of the General Assembly to help people fashion their own preferences free from any coercion, where there is no partisan pressure or bias. However, the fact remains that the lack of sound comprehensive media coverage and Internet information available leaves much to be desired. This is why we have supported the recent initiative by Agence Presse Européenne as a followup to their findings to set up the new online medium called Real Incomes where issues on constitution and constitutional economics, relevant to the prospects of the people of Britain, will be set out in more detail and free from the usual partisan angles."
"Some of the issues we face as a country are not simple but involve a range of interacting effects. Unfortunately the political establishment is not particularly good at providing any guidance through this maze. For this reason I have agreed to provide material for an online tutorial on the Real Incomes approach to economics which will help add some theoretical and applied substance to the background to propositions for change. Some of this material has never been published before so I am personally curious as to the reactions on the part of interested readers."
"We hope that the combination of short focused pamphlets and propositions at the General Assembly and a more comprehensive review and analysis of relevant economic and constitutional issues available through Real Incomes can help demonstrate that it is possible to review our national concerns in an environment free from the tired cliches which constitute political debate."
"I am encouraged that those who are expressing interest in Emancipation's efforts are associated with the main political parties as well as those who have not voted for some time in British elections. There is also an unexpected interest on the part of many who are not from the United Kingdom."
"It is of fundamental importance that individuals be free to shape their own preferences based upon their personal needs and desires using objective information. In this way we can move forwards towards a political system which enables an enhanced degree of freedom of expression based upon propositions fashioned bottom up by the people of this country. In this way we can distance ourselves from the bankrupt and contentious winner and loser situations generated by those pre-decided propositions coming from the inner sanctums of tiny private political parties.
The Real Incomes site can be accessed here and the initial tutorial sections will be posted around the beginning of December 2007." |
