ICUK: <\/strong>We are dealing with BOTH <\/strong>the need for many urgent palliatives<\/strong> within a dying system AND <\/strong>a systemic curative<\/strong> re-design and the democratic application of a curative and integrated political-economy.\u00a0\u00a0 Everyone who is ready to consider our challenge is likely already to be engrossed in a palliative in the existing system. We must clearly honour that fact, while also asking them as sensitively as we can to put their name and some deliberate additional activity to a critical mass movement for systemic restructuring. In this context we are offering the vital non-partisan, that is inclusive, approach \u2018to use the system, to become the system to change the system, to recover trust\u2019<\/em>.
\nIn order to bolster this educative mind-shift and maintain the creative tension of what so many think of as either\/or rather than both\/and, we must ensure that any clarifying of language does not obscure this profoundly radical intent \u2013 otherwise we are seen to be just another worthy radical adjustment disconnected from the integrity that is natural in the creative forces from which we all spring.\u00a0Cromwell puts it bluntly in ousting Parliamentarians. Collective dischord demands fundamental reform,\u00a0but we are trying \u2018to use the system. to become the system, to change the system to recover trust: \u00a0http:\/\/www.constitutionalists.uk<\/a><\/p>\n
