  • Mutual Action, Common Purpose.Qxp
    FABIAN SOCIETY Freethinking Mutual Action, Common Purpose: Empowering the Third Sector Chaired by the Rt Hon David Blunkett MP About the author DAVID BLUNKETT Acknowledgements Thanks are due to Tom Levitt MP, Rt Hon Alun Michael MP, Margaret Moran MP, Richard Burden MP, Sally Keeble MP, Fiona Mactaggart MP, Andy Reed MP, Baroness Glenys Thornton, Celia Barlow MP, David Borrow MP, Rob Flello MP, Baroness Mary Goudie, Ian Lucas MP, Baroness Julia Neuberger, Baroness Jill Pitkeathley, Christine Russell MP, Lord Andrew Stone. FABIAN SOCIETY Freethinking The Fabian Society is Britain’s leading left of centre think tank and political society, committed to creating the political ideas and policy debates which can shape the future of progressive politics. With over 300 Fabian MPs, MEPs, Peers, MSPs and AMs, the Society plays an unparalleled role in linking the ability to influence policy debates at the highest level with vigorous grassroots debate among our growing membership of over 7000 people, 70 local branches meeting regularly throughout Britain and a vibrant Young Fabian section and the Fabian Women’s Network, both organising their own activities. Fabian publications, events and ideas therefore reach and influence a wider audience than those of any comparable think tank. The Society is unique among think tanks in being a thriving, democratically-constituted membership organisation, affiliated to the Labour Party but organisationally and editorially independent. For over 120 years Fabians have been central to every important renewal and revision of left of centre thinking. The Fabian commitment to open and participatory debate is as important today as ever before as we explore the ideas, politics and policies which will define the next generation of progressive politics in Britain, Europe and around the world.
