Thank you everyone for your suggestions and interest.
So, we went to see our MP on Friday and he did seem genuinely concerned by what we had to say, particularly when we pointed out that his own house was more likely to be fracked under than ours.
We took along a copy of the local geological map and being a man of some intelligence he was able to follow our arguments about the complicated sequence of faulting in the rocks beneath our area and how this created a multitude of possible leakage lines for fracking pollutants and gas losses. We had previously sent him some information about our concerns and he appeared to have taken at least some of it in.
He was not going to make a commitment to anything until the wording of the bill to change the trespass law is finalised but he said that this is the first issue in which he feels that he must put the needs of his constituency above the Conservative party line.
We left him with a letter to reply to once he has had time to look at other information that we gave him.
He did seem shocked that the fracking companies are not turning up when they have said that they would and suggested looking at ways to arrange meetings with selected representatives of concerned groups so that they cannot back out on the grounds of having to deal with "extremists". He may be right in guessing that this is the reason for their non-appearance.
When we get a reply to our letter I will post the answers here, I hope that enjoys the research that he will need to do.
He is going to consult with other Lancashire MPs so if you live in Lancashire go and meet with your MP.
In fact wherever you live go and see your MP, Congressman, or whatever representative you have and also the candidates for the realistic opposition parties.
Good luck!
