Election material to encourage reform
Jonkster that is on the money, the main ills of the current trajectory and the way forward. Material for the media and any venue that gives us a platform.
I think one important ingredient in the debate is a new attitude towards the whole mechanism of government control over our freedoms.
We used to accept by acquiescence that government, ie the Crown, gave us privileges to fly. This is rubbish. We have a right to fly and the ‘privilege’ idea out of the medieval concept of the Monarch holding all rights, to be dispensed as Royal favour, must be discarded.
We accept simple rules for flight in the same way as we all accept the road rules. Those rules might be more complex than road rules but the principle is the same.
In the past we accepted all sorts of restrictions and costly procedures, which are now far worse, but commonsense and some liberal reading of the rules allowed GA to thrive.
Not so today and this must change.
