Will conference MPs show their green side on the way?
Sep 18th 2010
18 September 2010
Campaign for Better Transport, a transport campaign group, is writing to 622 MPs about the upcoming party conference season, suggesting they get there in a way that reflects their party’s green policies. By travelling by train, they could reduce the carbon footprints of this year’s events. If MPs were to drive rather than travel by train this would increase their carbon footprint by over 400 per cent. In order to understand their constituents’ concerns about fare rises, delayed trains and overcrowding, we believe that all politicians should experience rail journeys over the conference season.
