Post-election things to do

The horribly talented and active people at mySociety have now produced I Voted For You Because... where you can go and tell your newly elected representative what you do or do not expect them to be up to for the next 4/5 years.

If your mountains of campaign material didn't go straight in to the recycling send them to the good people trying to collect and preserve 2005 Election Leaflets. They even have freepost.

And if you're one of those newly elected representatives you'll be off to London to visit swear an oath to the Queen. Parliament fires up again as of Wednesday 11th. I am looking forward to Willott's maiden speech. I predicted some time ago that her "Standing up for our area" slogan was just dying to get a look in as some clever pun in the chamber. We shall see.

Around the blogging political communities the cry of "where next?" goes up. I will proxy blog Jenny Willott as she heads off to Westminster and see where things go from there. What would be very useful is if people took a few moments to provide a little feedback about the blog and perhaps ideas about what they might like to see happen from here. Ideas on a postcard, in the comments or an email, cardiffcentral(at)hotmail.co.uk.
