Save it from what you may ask, I am tempted to say…‘from itself’. Because that’s what it feels like at times!
This is what we need to save.

Our assets, or at least what is left of them are still the envy of the world.
Are we going to March through the streets shouting ‘We want Independence and we want it now’ then go home, put our feet up thinking that’s it I’ve done my bit for the year? Or are we going to roll up our sleeves, become part of the movement that is actually moving and get stuck in?
What does ‘belonging’ to something mean? We appear to have a lot of ‘sleepers’ in our organizations and Parties. But sleepers won’t get Independence, they will only hinder it!
You have to be in it to win it!!!
Passion goes a long way when turned into activism. The sleeping giant that was once the AUOB needs to be re-awakened. I read somewhere that the expected turn out on Saturday is about 5 thousand.
Marches still have their place, they show desire and intent.
Since Saturday leaders have shown their intent with one Party in particular responding positively to the call for talks.
Let the talking begin, when adults get together in one room great things can happen.
We all want change but sometimes we perceive change as something different from others. We are tempted to put the cart before the horse here, there can be no change at all unless we initiate the action required for change to happen. Only a Plebiscite Election can do that to act as a kind of Referendum. Given that we have the majority of Parties in favour of such an Election now talking to each other is possibly the most encouraging news so far.
I have always advocated that the Country comes before the Party, so I hope we can agree on a mechanism to make that happen, even if we have to tweak what we already have to accommodate each other.
In the meantime, let’s have some fun…
