The documentary covers the atrocious behaviour of the Liverpool Kensington New Deal for Communities initiative, Riverside Housing, the City Council and all the other corrupt service providers that are responsible for oppressing poor communities in Liverpool. Will burn 4,000 of them onto DVD and distribute them around the community and to all the corrupt local government service providers. service providers.

Good to hear that the campaigning continues - will the dvd be available from news from nowhere?

Just saying that these officers are "middle class" and trying to "gentrify" trhe area needs real evidence and not just an assumption based on something you have yet to see. The piece rightly highlighted the mess that Kensington Regeneration finds itself in, the fact that it could be more open and the fact that it is not delivering what it should. However, again it lapsed into effectively name-calling rather than giving real reasons why to believe what mike is saying. What he says may well be the case but without putting the argument across effectively even the least educated (for want of a better phrase) would think little of it.
I would also say that, having checked the last election esults, Mike may be a bit misguided n believing that around 500 people read his newsletter and that this ismore than the political parties there. Aside from the fact that even if this were the case then Mike would have got more votes, then on a purely usefulness basis then we must assume that Mike's newsletter is dismissed by a lot of people - more so than what those of the big parties is. (after all, what is the use of putting out an election leaflet if it is not to get you votes? - you can only change things with power in whatever form).
Maybe I wasn't seeing what was there and what mike was saying but as a form of getting the message across I was severely disappointed. I learnt little, found myself having to listen to the same unsupported opinion again and again and ultimately was desperate to hear another point of view. Surely that was not what Mike was after. I do hope he will deliver something better, effective and useful next time (if there is one).
