Made in Liverpool is Coming

I should moan about myself. The fact I can't keep a blog on line in anything less than yearly visits is more a testament of modern life than personal laziness. So all I can say in my offence is “out of blog, out of mind”

But word wurzelling over; where do I go from here? Well no New Year reservations (sic and sick) for a start, no false promises, and no false flags of inconvenience to top the summits of convenient untruths. Nor should I conclude that in the neo-world of the blog and the neato-world of the tweet that I should “bleat.”

Mind you in the landscaped pastures of the UK and the shepherded hooks of mad dog government there is a lot to bleat about. It's not really pastoral at all as the majority of us nibble on the short bitter shoots of recovery; whist running dogs gorge themselves in the troughs of greed and sloth. So for those who know Garret Harding and his “tragedy of the commons” there is a common that is forever England, where too many people do not have enough resources and opportunity. Its called the economy (stupid) and its broken. And those who broke it want the community to mend it, So from “No Society” to “Big Society” in less time that it takes to say four terms. That’s four terms PT (post-Thatcher)

So enter Made in Liverpool Ltd. It's a modest attempt by me to face off against political economics and do something related to natural economics, and perhaps in doing so create wealth from ideas that can help more people than just a few corporate shareholders. And in pursuing this idea I would also hope to localise things in a Liverpool context and not destroy the planet.

Now that is something to be happy about…..

More of last year, next year, More about Made in Liverpool soon
