Like it. That obviously wasn't Dave's intent though (or was it?) According to that great source of knowledge Wikipedia, David Cameron (July 2010, Liverpool Hope University) spoke of the Big Society in the following terms:
1. Give communities more powers (localism and devolution)
2. Encourage people to take an active role in their communities (volunteerism)
3. Transfer power from central to local government
4. Support co-ops, mutuals, charities and social enterprises
5. Publish government data (open/transparent government)
Re 2., the only people I know volunteering are those who were doing it already. For 1. it seems that some of this is happening or on the cards. What about the rest, folks?
