Upgrade Democracy

joining hundreds of other ‘rebels’ in windsor

Around 25 rebels from Nottingham made the visit to Windsor at the end of August to Upgrade Democracy. Some of us camped, others came down for one day.

It was so energising to spend time with like minded people and the mass (ass)embly on Saturday afternoon gave us all a glimpse of what our democracy could look like – everyone’s voice on upgrading our democracy being heard and debated. Debate that wasn’t dominated and influenced by the fossil fuel companies or the oligarchs controlling our media.

Citizen’s Assemblies – XR’s 3rd demand – is needed now more than ever before as our world leaders continue to fail to take the Climate and Nature crisis seriously enough, despite the evidence from around the world telling them otherwise with floods, droughts and storms occurring on every continent.

More information, photos and links to the livestreams can be found on the XRUK website.
