As our regular readers will know, he three Early Day Motions tabled in Parliament during October fell when Parliament was prorogued (i.e. the Parliamentary year came to an end).
Our sympathisers in Parliament wasted no time and three new Early Day Motions were tabled on the first day of the new Session, 15 November. Details of them are on the SOW web site at http://tinyurl.com/ydx4mx . Even if you have already written to your MP, it is important to write again to ask him/her to sign these motions. But be warned that if he/she is a Minister, a junior member of the Government or an Opposition spokesman they will probably feel debarred by Parliamentary convention from signing, but could be asked to show their support in other ways. -- Mike Stevens narrowboat Felis Catus III web-site www.mike-stevens.co.uk Defend the waterways.
