On visiting a community radio station, Andy Burnham MP, Secretary of State for Culture Media and Sport said: “I’m incredibly impressed by what I’ve seen so far. Just by speaking to the people involved it’s clear that it’s passion, and it’s a passion that’s changing lives. It’s a great thing, and as we look to the future, and look at the things that technology will make possible I think that more communities will be taking control of their own media, rather than being spoon fed media from the top down by a very remote media company. Let’s have some media from local communities speaking to local communities.”
We rather like that. In fact it's just what is happening in Basildon and East Thurrock.
