    Critically discuss the following quotation: “The job of government is to provide the stitches that link the patchwork, not prescribe the colour, shape and texture of every separate piece of the quilt. The best of the new links will be created by people who rely on their own practical, tacit knowledge of what is needed and who harness their own anger and frustration into a new and positive energy. They may well be uncomfortable for politicians and bureaucrats alike, but that is what democracy is all about. People problems are not neat and tidy packages to be handled by experts at the centre.”(Edgar 2001:193).please I need a good essay and paraphrase, and I need to flow the refernce becuse the Dr need it like that.
