Kevin Roddis joined Emma Norris's group
Civic Commons
The Civic Commons will be a space where local people, local decision-makers and leading thinkers from around the world can discuss new ideas and design and implement solutions to the issues that matter to them.
Kevin Roddis commented on RSA Projects Team's blog post Sam McLean: "Civic engagement needs more forward thinking""Gazing at ones navel is so easy. Actually demonstrating more forward thinking in Civic engagement however requires a little more effort.
In a galaxy far, far away there exists a small metropolis. The metropolis fathers want to convince the local…"
Kevin Roddis commented on David Over's blog post Rural Peterborough"Hardly a rant Keely. I would add every area of Peterbough, rural, suburb or centre deserves to have a say in how their neighbourhood develops. Marco is on this site extolling the virtues of Neighbourhood Councils and how he wants 'the…"
Kevin Roddis commented on David Over's blog post Rural Peterborough"Villages will always find themselves in a dilemma.
Whilst they resist all attempts for development as such development will at best dilute and at worst destroy the environment they sort by living in a village they are just as vociferous about lack…"

I've been back to the calendar for "What's On" and this time decided to look back instead of forward. Going back, there are listed events. In fact you can go back to when the calendar appears to have started and find quite…"

It's partly inward looking and partly how the 'daily crust' is earned, though perhaps the latter causes the former. Put basically if you earn your crust by getting buy-in then you make sure you know who your customers are and…"
Kevin Roddis replied to RSA Projects Team's discussion Social media in Peterborough in the group Social Media"And it only takes a few more minutes wondering around the site to illustrate.
Somewhere in the middle of all this is Peterborough.
One of the features of Peterborough is what goes on there. There's a link at the top. Excellent. Even better the…"
Kevin Roddis replied to RSA Projects Team's discussion Social media in Peterborough in the group Social Media"Probably not palatable but then does it really matter.
I have read parts of the site and taken a brief look at the recommended links above. I can find no evidence to suggest that a sales proposition has been thought of, never mind defined. What…"

- I don't mind not going to a meeting if it means physically attending a location. I don't want to do that at all. I just want them to make clear on the website or whichever social communication method they like what happened, what was said, and what conclusions were drawn.
Maybe I haven't grasped the navigation on here, but I can't seem to find much in the way of communication, apart from your good self of course.

- In fact I didn't join them but I have now.
So what happened?

- No they seem to keep me in the dark.
There's a good example of citizen power in the making on the ET article about plans to build flats in Fletton here:

I think the most relevant thing to do in the present situation is to resist evictions if they start to become unreasonable. it's OK to repossess a couple of buy-to-lets but it's not OK to start chucking people out on the street in order to leave the buildings standing empty. It's already happening with workplaces.

I made this one earlier:
peterborough.posterous.com
That's sufficiently neutral for anyone I would have thought, and of course, entirely unfunded. Power to the People and Horses for Hay.

I am still determined to keep the dream alive for my fellow half-wits. Up the Revolution.
