  I agree Peter, the country is in such a state that something radical has to occur to defuse the deficit, give hope to the people and avoid the spectre of anarchy. 'Big Society' is nothing new to all those volunteers who for the last 50years have been gathering in number and pace as leisure time increases and movements encompassing heritage,countryside,wildlife,the environment and philanthropy have expanded beyond the wildest dreams of their original activists. Here is a chance for them to take the lead and illuminate the way for the uninitiated and gain even grander recognition for their efforts. My team and I will be amongst the first on the steps of the Big Society Bank. I guess there will be some jostling but that's democracy. Big Society is seen as a con by many but they will be the ones who won't grasp it and make it work. They will be left behind. I believe that even the PM himself doesn't realise the potential power of what he is initiating.
