Subject: RE: Killed by the PEL system Part 2
I'm agast at the attitude.

This was put in to public domain therefore public took action, the banning of a session is not the personal property of the man who organised it or wh0os group was affected. We all are - that time was your turn. This one is going to run and run like pass the parcel but without a prize in teh middle at present!

We lost the Lands End in Berkshire on its first night after only 1.5 hours. BTW it is John Redwoods constituency and he hasn't signed the EDM yet - if anyone wants to badger or beleagure him feel free, I won't object. I'm not a jobsworth we are all in this together.
Sorry - didn't mean to sound personal.

Campaigning by many groups can help. The sufragettes won in the end I hope we don't need such extreme lengths but we do need informed decisions and we need councils to realise that the public interest may not be best served by enforcing laws which many JPs and magistrates think are grossly out of date and need a serious overhaul. I have that from an ex morris dancing JP (or magistrate I can never remember) who raised this at a local bench meeting!!!!
