Deliberative polling sounds like a great idea. Bit utopian perhaps, but we do need an alternative to media and the current Babel of public opinion for reliable information.

Whether deliberative polling would suit the powers that be is its main weakness I think. Funding and organisation would have to be independent of any commercial or political interest for it to serve its intended purpose.

Still, 10 out of 10 for effort and good intentions. I'd be interested to know how it goes on other topics.

TRTL and all

you all have the chance and the choice about TAPP's policies and also is a forum for such if you wished to debate them.

They are there if you want to read them and until you take the time to look then you havnt done anything.

Between myself and the backroom around Australia this is what we have come up with as being normal everyday people who are fed up.

So if you dont want to read them your fault not mine.

You take take a horse to water( if there is any) but you still cannot make him drink.

If you do not want to drink then the only choice is labor and nothing more.

Until you take that step which is up to you not me your choice is only labor.

So that is the point have a read and in a week will write something for OLO for your comments but until you have read it there really is not point at debate as no reference.
