People’s Assemblies –
the future shape of democracy

The global political elites have turned democracy into a commodity and sold it to the corporations and banks for a small fee. Our votes now count for very little despite the great struggles of the past to win the franchise and give people a say in elections.
Whoever is in power will do what the financial markets, the major corporates and the International Monetary Fund say. That is why the burden of the economic crisis of capitalism is imposed on ordinary people with wage cuts, lower pensions, unemployment and the loss of vital services.
So we should create a new political and economic system, one that is actually responsive to the needs of the majority and not the minority whose only interests are profits and large bonuses.
People’s Assemblies are the new shape of democracy, and the vehicle for going forward to the stage of challenging the authority of governments to bring ruin on people and, ultimately, replacing them and the system they serve.
