As my petition is closing Oct 21st could I ask you to sign if you have not already done so.
I have to date 670 Signatures and also a List of 80 Signatures that is rising all the time from members that do not have a computer or who have not seen the petition on the web.
This was kindly started by Surrey Group and will go with me to Sussex and Kent AGM's and then be sent to Downing Street and Boris.
Stories are coming out of a member who has his Drive split by the Zone and they can drive out but not back again due to the one way system.
Also another member who has the Zone at the end of the road so will be fined if he drives out of his road.
There is a Sainsbury car Park half in and half out so you see come 2010 we are really going to see the fun start as I have also been told of the lorry driver who realised he was coming into the zone and did a U turn to get out of paying so causing a problem to the traffic this will start happening with our Motor Homes.
Thankyou for all your kind support on this matter as it is about time we stood up for OUR HUMAN RIGHTS.
I agree we should be aware of the problems of the planet but why such a big fine £100 in and a £100 out is very unfair.

http://petitions.pm.gov.uk/motorhomes/
My petition reads:
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Exempt
Motorhomes from the new Emmission Charges.
Motorhome Owners average Mileage in England is aprox 6,000 per
year. We rally at weekends and enjoy holidays around the
country as well. The Hobby is enjoyed by retired couples and so
we cannot afford fines or scrap our vehicles, as advised in
many of the articles on the subject. Our carbon footprint is
very small compared to Lorries (english or foreign).

Done it,

Low Emission zone? 9 out of 10 days in the UK the wind blows & so dissipates any emissions, whilst I agree that polution should be kept to an absolute minimum, the shear lunacy of declaring an unenclosed area a low emission zone defies logic!

What next? declaring the countryside a low methane zone? go tell all the cows, sheep, goat, horses etc to stop farting!!!!

Dont forget the Planes in the sky, do they not give of emissions.????

All the expansions to the airports will that increase emissions???

Mind you they are closing pubs down so that will stop some of the beery blow outs !!!

Right I cannot change the wording to no 10 but I have copied the Petition
(all 20 pages) to prepare it to be sent to others.
I have been able to correct my Typing errors
If I reword it at this point would this sound better.
I welcome any advice but I must close this by Sunday to send it off Monday.

E-Petitions.
We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to Exempt Motorhomes from the new Emission Charges. More details
Submitted by Mavis Nye of Motorhome Caravanners Club – Deadline to sign up by: 16 October 2008 – Signatures: 897

More details from petition creator
Motorhome Owners average Mileage in United Kingdom is aprox 6,000 per year. We rally at weekends and enjoy holidays around the country.
This Recreation is enjoyed by many including families and retired couples and so we cannot afford these disproportional fines or scrap our vehicles, as advised in many of the articles on the subject. Our carbon footprint is very small compared to Lorries (English or foreign).

Thank you for your support this year.
I had 912 people sign the petition and I have raised a handwritten one with over 150 signatures.
I will now forward these to Boris, London Transport, My own MP Julian Frazier who helped me so much, and The European Parliament and Euro MP's
Thank you again I really have enjoyed meeting such a great bunch of people and hope I have helped in passing on all that was happening in the LEZ as it was being set up.
Regards Mavis (Locovan)
