“Tabled”, in the US, means “to set aside”, “to stop considering”, “to postpone”.
Is that what it means in the UK? Carleton From: Kilopascal [mailto:kilopas...@cox.net] Sent: Sunday, November 24, 2013 22:37 To: U.S. Metric Association Subject: (1) BWMA British Weights & Measures Association https://www.facebook.com/British.Weights.and.Measures.Association Some exciting news for BWMA members: we now have a second new Patron to join Labour's Kate Hoey: Philip Hollobone, Conservative MP for Kettering since 2005. Philip has been rated the most rebellious Tory MP and earlier this year tabled a series of Bills that would privatise the BBC, bring back the death penalty, and abolish the Deputy Prime Minister. Philip is also a member of the cross-party Better Off Out group of MPs campaigning for Britain to leave the EU. Philip is a Special Constable with the British Transport Police, and used to be a paratrooper in the Territorial Army. Are these “Patrons” of any value to their cause? If the UKMA had patrons would it help in matters? BWMA seems to make an issue of this. Now this Patron seems to have a very wild side. Can’t tell if it is good for their cause or not.
