Letter to all shropshire newspapers

The Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill No 111

As I understand the provisions of this proposed piece of pernicious legislation, it is effectively an ‘Enabling Bill’ that if passed will have far reaching constitutional consequences.

It appears to be a way of allowing laws to be amended and/or created by ministers, not Parliament, making MPs effectively redundant. The most prominent user of such legislation in the past was Adolf Hitler. He making use of similar such laws, enacted by predecessors, to sweep away democracy completely.

The current New Labour Government has already destroyed much of our democracy that took around a thousand years to carefully construct. They must not be allowed to complete their apparent plan to created anti-democracy state.

I urge everyone to write to their MP urging them to resist the Legislative and Regulatory Reform Bill No 111 with every fibre of your being if they do not it will be every elector who will effectively disenfranchised by inaction.

I have just seen your letter published on the Express & Star website, and would like to thank you for helping to raise the profile of the campaign against the bill. I'm not sure if you're aware of this already, but there is a website which is puts across the reasons to oppose the bill in a simple way for the general public at www.saveparliament.org.uk.
