I think we should start putting our money where our mouths are and start writing to this Steve Hounsham chappie at Transport 2000. He is obviously misguided and needs correcting. His email address according to Transport 2000s website is steve.hounsham@transport2000.org.uk. Please make sure your emails to him are polite and courteous. Do not send him abuse as it does our cause absolutely no good.

Pointless exercise. These people are driven goons. Their life mission is to get us off the road. Mike Dickin interviewed one about speed cameras. He did an excellent demolition job, but it went right over Mr Trainspot's head. Mike's closing trap was magnificent... What do you drive, Mr T?....... Oh, I like to walk a lot... and I've got a bicycle......

Its pointless sending emails to any of these people. Unless you agree with them 100% they won't reply. I've emailed various SCPs as well as T2000 and Brake and recieved no repsonse whatsoever. I'm tempted to set up two different yahoo accounts and from one send syncophantic emails praising their work, and from the other send polite, well reasoned arguments pointing to holes in their mission statements. Wonder which one will get the most replies.....

I actually disagree. Many of them wander round in their own little bubble and are rarely confronted by a large number of opinions that are contrary to their own. You will never change their mind - but if enough people start emailing them then they will understand that there is hostility towards their ideas. These people can only get worse. If they continue unabated they will simply continue proposing even more dumb ideas. I think its also wrong to come onto PH and continually moan about what these people are saying. We have a voice and it needs to be heard. Bitching on a forum full of people who slap each other on the back isn't going to change a thing.
