An excellent piece, illustrating how little influence our mp's who are supposedly representing us have! What an eye opener...this speaks volumes when it comes to equalization...I've said it in the past...you have to get to the Prime Minster to get results.

Thanks Martin. We thought it was informative and yes, we need a PM to talk to us. There must be political will to see this equalization issue addressed. We are certain that if we could even get a court to hear our claim and review our data, things would change. It is hard to get political will when the problem is from the top down. The MPs seem to answer to the higher up and not the public. That needs to change. Thanks Martin.
