Default Re: Another response

Michael Mates wrote back a couple of days ago enclosing a copy of a letter sent to him from John Healey at the Treasury.

The letter from Michael Mates stated

"You will be pleased to see that there is a possibility of the derogation permitting the use of red diesel ... continue into and beyond 2007".

The letter from the Treasury merely says that "Ministers will be considering the position on the UK's derogation in the run up to 2006".

I think we need to vote carefully in the next General Election, hint, don't put your X anywhere near the Labour or Lib Dem candidate:-)

A big "No" to the EU constitution would help too.
