Too right Pete. To be honest, the way politicians are so happy to praise the Transition movement is a pretty good sign that it’s not realy challenging the status quo.

When Mr Milliband says “How do ‘we’ build a popular movement on these issues?”

I think the answer should be “You don’t. We do.”

does he ever see any of his emails or are they filtered by a secretary. The minute they agree that economic growth has not to be the driving force they then would lose their power over us. that beside greed is the reason they won’t accept a no growth economy.

Ed said;
” Let me end therefore by saying something unusual for a politician: part of my job is to be criticised for not doing enough.
…
Let’s all of us make sure that when we look back, in decades to come, we can say:

We saw the threat.

We responded to the challenge.

We did our bit.”

So if we think that so far it’s too little too late we must let him know! – his email is milibande@parliament.uk
