A quiet revolution is underway…

April 28th, 2010 Posted in Election, UK Politics by

…but has the “old media” cottoned on yet ???

Earlier today I linked to a great video that was primarily about people rebelling against the old notion of doing what they are told in an election; casting off the idea that politicians “know best”; rejecting the idea that things can never change. It was a neat, beautifully produced video that summed up how many people feel.

Within a matter of minutes I came across another video – with a similar theme. And then was emailed about another video that also said, pretty much, the same thing. Then another and then another…

This, I think, is the Obama-style theme of this election – bubbling along underneath the General Election coverage we see on TV and read in the newspapers.

People have woken up – at last – to the fact that we have been lied to, robbed, ignored and patronised. Out of a single debate, came the idea that people could do actually do something about it. As the video below states to the politicians in this country….

The  more  you  threaten  us , the stronger we will become.

Talk that makes us fearful will make us braver.

The more you seek to make  us doubt ourselves, the more determined we will become.

The more you tell us we are wrong, the more we will know that we are right.

For times such as this come but once in a lifetime. And we will seize the opportunity to take back that which is ours

This election has ignited peoples imaginations. Whilst the polls may not be saying this, I have a sneaky feeling that a Lib Dem tidal wave is rolling over this country unreported. Hope and empowerment are highly contagious feelings.

It  looks to me that we may well have an epidemic on our hands.
