- Automiglioramento
Indra and Pat are co-initiators of The Alternative UK, a political platform aimed at transforming the language and practice of UK politics - through what they describe as 'a friendly revolution'.
They point out that 98% of people in this country aren't involved in mainstream party politics, except to vote in elections, and even then turnout is low. But below the radar they see a burgeoning range of local, grassroots activism, sparked by many different issues, which isn’t reflected in the mainstream.
So - is a new kind of politics emerging, what Indra and Pat call 'the politics of waking up'?
