The political saga of the past several years has brought many changes, across the polical spectrum.

It has not, however, changed the fundamental principles expressed on these pages.

A major revision of these pages is needed, to add content, and to update specific references to parties, events, etc.

While that revision proceeds, please read the information posted here for its fundamental ideas and principles.
