Democracy

Dame Anne Salmon
If citizens and their representatives are supine while democratic rights are trampled, we are culpable, along with our leaders.

Thomas Jefferson
The price of freedom is eternal vigilance, there are times when we have to stand up for our rights, and the rights of our neighbours and friends, indeed the rights of people we totally disagree with, or else these rights will begin to erode away   

Aristotle
In a democracy the poor will have more power than the rich, because there are more of them, and the will of the majority is supreme.

Newton-Residents-Business
Democracy does not stop with election, it remains the duty of the our elected officials, and of the community to remind them.
