If all of these were to be submitted to the Home Secretary that might not be a bad thing, as our collective questions might be seen together by someone in a senior position.

Re: Let your MP know what you think
Hi folks, I must apologize because my printer isn't working and getting a PC at the library is proving difficult.... but I will try again on Monday.I spoke to my MP's secretary who assures me that a letter is more likely to get a detailed reply, than an e mail. Apparently they get hundreds of e mails each day!
I will keep trying!

Re: Let your MP know what you think
HiTwinks, first of all thank you.
I have written and emailed my MP.
He is the most arrogant git imaginable.
According to the Electorate Society he is in the safest seat in the UK.
He is incredibly wealthy, his main aims are Badger Culling and the return of Fox Hunting.
He believes in the abolition of Inheritance Tax and the National Minimum Wage.
Market Forces must rule.
He also believes in the abolition of the State Pension as it is up to the Individual to make their own Pension Provisions.
Needless to say, we do not get on.
He is an Ex Cabinet Minister, sacked because of his Extreme Right Wing Views.

On the state pensions issue, things could get very complicated. I have no problem with people making their own pension arrangements providing everybody, who earned an income, was forced to put money into one. All those who have been unable to work would remain on benefits..... but there would be problems!
All pension pots would have to be controlled by fixed laws , to prevent anybody being able to use them for other purposes. Companies providing personal pensions would have to be strictly governed and current tax benefits would have to remain!
At the moment all political parties seem to be unable to work out who is illegally claiming benefits or who is in this country that shouldn't be. They cannot expect the public to make their own arrangements for pensions, until they can work out who is genuinely entitled to get benefits.
