Why did we only target John Prescott and not the rest of the ministerial team as well, namely Nick Raynsford, Keith Hill, Lord Rooker, Yvette Cooper and Phil Hope? Surely they would have a say? Were they part of the postcard campaign?

Have I missed something here??

 






Keith Hill is the Minister who deals with most planning applications.

Prescott is the man who decides what is a matter of national consideration.

When you have to argue that this is a matter of national significance, you have to persuade Prescott.

Incidentally, the AONB and the National Park are the responsibility of Margaret Beckett and Alan Michael at DEFRA. They deal with Prescott. That's another reason for us targeting Prescott, not Hill.

That's Alun Michael, Lord B. He's a time-serving, lickspittle Blair loyalist who was, sensibly, rejected as Welsh First Minister. I hadn't realised he'd ended up at DEFRA.

Glad we don't have to lobby that tosser.
 


Sorry about the typo, Gwylan. Isn't he the guy who left an earlier government job to spend more time with his family, only for them to tell him they'd rather he spent his quality time with civil servants?
