But what if the Big Society doesn't work?
Oh, it might not work? Well, let's not try anything then.
    If we do want to try it, here are some suggestions for volunteers in the "big society" - things we should be doing for ourselves.
Criminal Justice
   Neighbourhood Watch
   Red-Beret-type vigilante groups
Healthcare
  GP receptionists and form-fillers
  Hospital form-fillers, cleaners and bed-pan emptiers
Environment
  Litter Pick-up teams
  Litterer thumping teams
Education
  Teachers aides (with the power to report bad teachers)
  School Cleaners
  Drama, music and sports coaches
  School librarians, indeed all public libraries
Banking
  Executive Remuneration Committees
Business
  Volunteer checkers (reporting to a Consumer Watchdog with teeth that is paid for by fines on violators)
