I am really impressed with
I am really impressed with Zuzana's attitude and the approach they have taken here - aiming to establish direct relationship with governing bodies, as well as exercising pressure on them. I think trough this approach even the problem with lack of public engagement can be addressed easier, as the results become apparent. Zuzana is creating an image of a transparent MP opposing those, who are not willing to cooperate, giving people engaged in governance an additional - and potentially very powerful tool - to achieve their private aims, i.e. more votes.
Great example of direct action and work for government accountability with those who will be able to improve the laws themselves in near future.
I think the work towards a change with part of society directly involved, but in many cases the least supportive too is the most challenging aspect of any action of this type. I really hope that other transparency projects will establish co-operation with Fair-Play Alliance to learn from their experiences.
