Online campaign targets high cost of housing We have seen dictators brought down, triggered through online protests. Ideas sprawled over BE forum matter :thumbup: Looks like only about 10% of the committed activists, are actually activisty :p House buyers' strike a no-go, says GetUp! May 6, 2011 http://www.smh.com.au/business/house...506-1eazw.html Online activist group GetUp! decided not to pursue a strike of home purchases to protest at the lack of affordability in the housing market because its own members did not like the idea. "While the issue of housing affordability is clearly an issue that resonates with plenty of people, GetUp! members don't support a boycott campaign," wrote Kelsey Cooke, online community co-ordinator for GetUp! late last week. "Over the course of the last couple of weeks, we surveyed a random segment of our membership to gauge support - only 10 per cent strongly support the campaign, and more than half the surveyed members opposed this campaign altogether." |
