Red Alert campaign blog

Welcome to the Red Alert blog!

Welcome to MBM's first ever web log, dedicated to our campaign to keep low-tax red diesel.

Here, we'll be updating you on developments as they happen, including everything from the politicians who are supporting us to details of how you can help.

Elsewhere on our Red Alert microsite you'll find background on the campaign, and you can also post messages on our red diesel forum.

Watch this space for all the latest news!
