Anger over C-charge ad
Date published: 12/11/2008
GREEN campaigners are writing to the Commons Speaker to demand the removal of a motion by MPs who are in a snap, crackle and pop over congestion charging.
Heywood Labour MP Jim Dobbin has signed the early day motion drawn up by Conservative Graham Brady, MP for Altrincham and Sale West accusing Clean Air Now of “inappropriate use of public funds” when it took out a £6,000 newspaper advert criticising cereal makers Kellogg’s for its road pricing opposition.
The motion says Clean Air Now receives funds from a number of public bodies. Clean Air Now insisted today that it is not and never has been publicly funded. A Kellogg’s spokesman said the firm was in touch with Clean Air Now and did not want to comment.
Have Your Say
Just in, the latest exemptions to the Con TAX :- The Dalai Lama, Stuart Hall, The Gallagher Bros, big fat men, them next door, Eric Cantona, Holland’s pie vans, people with silly names, KimJong-il, Brooklyn, Romeo & Cruz Beckham, Him as used to read the news on ITV, & people wearing Bri-nylon shirts. Anyone with an exemption to these exemptions will be considered exempt under current exemption regulation 5e. (exemptions).
Clean air now must be one of those stakeholders mentioned in the TFI bid whoever they are!
