I wrote to my MP...

" Dear Dr Jones,
It's a BROWN tax not a GREEN tax...
Mr Brown has put up airport tax but not enough to make anyone think again about travelling by air
It will make no environmental difference at all
A proper green tax would have been one.... "

and the reply was:

From: "JONES, Lynne"
To: "David Williams"

Sorry not to have replied before.
I am inclined to agree.
I will ask Gordon Brown for a response and then get back to you.

Sadly Dr Jones has been de-selected and replaced with someone more docile and inclined to toe the party line... I hope this was not a result asking my question!
