Repeated surveys attributed to MORI have shown that over seventy percent
of people in Britain approve the greater use of referendum; and agree
that a large number of citizens should be able to trigger a referendum
on any matter of public concern.

Opinions do not automatically or mysteriously become public policy. To
introduce these well tried procedures of democracy, such as citizens'
initiative and referendum, we need a country-wide campaign. So if you
want these reforms, start your own campaign or join and support I&R at

Those who wish to deepen their knowledge without digging into their
pockets can find a mine of information about how citizens' democracy
works in nearby countries, in the peer reviewed journal
