THE UGLY
• Over 2/3rds of English authorities actually breaking the law by providing no e-petition
• 26% of council websites included listings future consultations planned, where they list current and past consultation exercises online
• 49% do not offer a map showing council ward boundaries.
• You have to be there
• You must not avoid the conversation

“Blogs improve the quality of a politician’s public perception and
potentially the citizens’ voting decisions as well (irrespective of a
potential contribution to deliberation).”

”…..Blogs can improve democratic processes in certain regards, where
the traditional means of political communication have shortcomings
—for example, they potentially allow more people to actively
participate in political discourse.”
