Support for Democracy

Increased pressure has been put on the old Parliament buildings over the past few years.

New security measures and an increasing threat to democracy from outside, malevolent forces bent on destroying our way of life has required new strategies from our government.

Where there was once just the House of Commons and the House of Lords, there is now a welcome addition:

The House of Corporations

BLACCXN, as a truly democratic, caring corporate citizen, is helping to build the new House of Corporations.

The site to the south of the House of Lords (pictured above) was an obvious location - a derelict but prime site just waiting for regeneration.
The site, Victoria Tower Gardens, was Crown land, and had been used as parkland, but all it takes is an Act for change.

We may not innovate, but we know who to imitate. Click here for precedents.

At BLACCXN, we regard prime sites, like Victoria Tower Gardens, that have been allowed to go to seed as yet another anachronism from a bygone era when elites ruled by virtue of their birth. We believe in access, in productivity, in usefulness.

Britain is a meritocracy now.
