The campaign will be developed in three stages,

​

• We will get supporters from in and around Llanidloes using new editions of the Llanidloes Gazette and social media. We'll be using facebook, twitter and instagram all of which will link back to this website.

• The Llanidloes Gazette has played a crucial role in explaining our ideas to people so we're doing a generic version that can be used in any part of Wales. The quality of the Gazette gives potential supporters confidence in CfD and this quality has been maintained. We'll write a personal letter to households in our target areas and these will be followed by copies of our Gazette. The campaign will be extended to Newton and the Llandaff and Radyr areas of Cardiff as soon as possible.

  This might seem like a lot of work but we have an advantage. Political parties have to appeal to millions of voters. We only have to reach a few thousand people in a handful of constituencies to be effective. Our initial aim is to collect enough pledges to remove Russell George and replace him with the Lib Dem candidate, Alison Alexander. Extending the campaign across Montgomeryshire should achieve this and get us the publicity we need to grow. A single issue pressure group like Campaign for Democracy that can remove a sitting member of the Senedd will be national news in Wales.

• Take the campaign to the Cardiff West constituency, the seat of our First Minister, Mark Drakeford with the intention of removing him from office. This will be the base from which we run campaigns in our target seats in South Wales. This area covers five of the six Labour seats we are targeting.

 

Our aim is to get the politicians in Cardiff to agree to the introduction of our systems before the election. Once that has been done we will call the campaign off and the election can go ahead as normal.
