The most recent e-mail on Shooters' Rights which has just hit my screen
(very good way of disseminating info. and motivating shooters, the Internet)
refers to the 6 members of the Gun Control Network whose submission on
banning weapons was accepted whereas any opinions the Shooting Community had
were ignored.
So just who are these shadowy 6 figures? Are they MPs, or do they include
that loony woman who didn't even live in Dunblane but clambered on the
bandwagon for the sake of some self-publicity?
The point of the query is this. A General Election may well be on the cards
for Spring next year - April/May are the dates being touted in the
Press.(This is why, incidentally, chosing 18th March for the next Big March
is an ideal time - it's close enough to the likely Election Date to scare
the shits out of Tony and his spineless Cronies). If the 6 members of GCN
are MPs, a special effort should be made to mobilise helpers, canvassers, &
leaflet-distributors to flood their constituencies. These MPs deserve a
favour from us - they deserve to be chucked out and into the real world
where people have to work for a living.
I voted for the "Anyone but David Mellor" Party in Putney last time and was
delighted when he was ignominiously rejected by the electorate even though I
am a natural Tory - I would cheerfully vote for the late Screaming Lord
Sutch if it would help to dump out of Parliament any MP who supports gun
control.
Targetting these MPs (no pun intended) with overwhelming support for their
opponents would help clarify other MPs' attitudes about gun control. The
prospect of losing their nice, comfy sinecures should crystallise their
thoughts nicely.

The six members are not MPs, although Gill's husband (I think or is it
her brother) is. I think their members are stated on their website,
but anyway it's Gill, that nutty professor, and four family members
of people killed at Dunblane or Hungerford, although I think Tony
Hill has packed it in now because the GCN did have seven members
at one point. Obviously you're not going to have much luck
flooding the MP for Dunblane with information.
