We believe that a better kind of government is possible; one based on openness, transparency, evidence, and citizen engagement. We believe that it is time for those of us who have a stake in the future to stand up, and change the system from the inside.
I guess when there is a majority then the PR gets merged. This is an experiment though, so let's find out!
The next UK general election is in 2015. We aim to field candidates in that election, and a platform for them to stand on.

Merge the introduction PR first. This converts that into a jekyll site, so we can publish in a slightly prettier format using github pages. Once this is merged I will rename master to gh-pages and set that as the default branch.
