My house mate just said that his friend, who is at sixth form college, just had a PSHE (personal, social and health education) lesson in which they studied the website TheyWorkForYou.com.
Apparently it is good and I should go to it.

More seriously, throughout mySociety’s existence we’ve wanted to get our websites used in lessons in schools more.
Rather than abstract citizenship – concrete sending of letters to councillors, reporting of broken infrastructure etc.
We’ve just never found the right volunteer to push through lesson plans, or whatever is needed to help with this.
Brilliant!
Muy interesante. En aras de la democracia me pregunto si el gobierno (actual) ve la forma de hacer. Tal vez estoy siendo demasiado cínico sin embargo la multitud de decisiones que se producen en los períodos entre elecciones al menos de momento, parece estar en secreto y en algunos casos abiertamente controlados por nuestra mayoría elegidos. Me pregunto si eso sucede porque a pesar de, o de la complicidad tácita de las instituciones de llenar el vacío. El efecto parece ser que no muy vivo en la democracia que creemos que hacemos. Y como tal creo que mySociety probablemente está haciendo un gran trabajo en términos relativos – que debería ser mucho mejor publicidad.
