the "Suggestions" post

[lolitics_meme]

A few words about the meme: 
a) You are all amazing!
b) Keep it up!
c) I think I'll start another post here when the comments reach 3000. Otherwise it might get too chaotic Y / N?

Someone suggested it would be great to have some place to collect all the articles we're constantly using for/referencing in our fics.

Would you find it helpful if you

A resources post would be a brilliant idea. A Politikipedia anyone?

As a suggestion, could you, would it be possible to do a roundup of the unfilled prompts perhaps? I don't know, bring them forward for each new main post (if that makes sense...)

Anyways, you guys are doing an awesome job, so thank you.

All unfilled prompts are tagged as such on delicious. Or is that too chaotic and you/everyone would prefer the unfilled prompts to be posted seperately again?

Articles if they post it in the subject in the format of : [source]: [title] so GUARDIAN: What David and Nick really said to each other of the steps of no. 10
Reference post with height etc would be great.

Thanks.

A reference post with links to information on the government, how things work etc. Who protects the PM and other Ministers etc. I've read a number of stories where it's obvious people have no idea. MI5 for instance do not play a day to day role in protecting the PM, it's Specialist Protection in the Met. MI5 only operate in the UK, MI6 operate abroad. Considering MI5 have bugged previous PMs I doubt politicians are going to let them any where near, unless they absolutely have to.

I don't know that much about this stuff either tbh but I'll see if I can find a site where everything is explained and include that in the post, thanks.

Maybe you could put a post up for people to ask questions or give information - like the stuff on oxbridge & public schools? That way it would clutter up the writing post. I'm sure there are plenty of folks who know stuff about the workings of government, whitehall, posh folk etc.

oh yes this is a good comm for info which would be good to link to. A wealth of info in the tags http://community.livejournal.com/little_details

Maps, layout and information about the laws surrounding common settings. Obviously not the whole of London, but a layout of Downing Street, the House of Commons, etc.

Here's a little description of the Houses of Parliament - http://www.parliament.uk/visiting/directions/layout/
