Down, Down - down the dustpipe

This video by Harry Hammersmith and the Flyovers is produced by Hammersmith and Fulham council to "engage residents on its budget". But check out the 'engagement' they have gained on the Youtube page. In only ten days it seems to have become an open forum for disgruntled council employees, residents and anybody who wishes to slag them off basically. A great example of the dangers outweighing the potential of the online environment perhaps and an indication of why electoral political organisations seem nervous of allowing feedback and co-production.
