Awareness Raising Spoke Cards Campaign Project?

With a few exceptions, we haven't had much feedback on the campaign. Do you want to be a part of it? Can you help with the video, website etc? If you can, please say so. Do you have ideas for improving the campaign? We've had a few responses but I'd be encouraged if we had more. I want to see what level of interest there is in following through on this.

So the meeting tomorrow was to be a vote on campaign alternatives / the ideas put forward. As very little has been put forward - thanks to those who have - I'm going to make the meeting about defining what can be achieved and who can take ownership of each task.

hey jb. i am interested.

but i think it would be much easier (and possibly more effective) to email the politicians every time a cyclist is killed on londons roads. and that would include mps, local coundillors, the mayors office and copy in the media. and possibly the head of the house of lords.

we need to build a list.

and then the email just needs to simple. something like:

'another cyclist killed today (give date and postcode).

please improve road / community safety'.

i think the steady drip drip drip effect combined with them knowing that we are constantly watching them for action will bug them and then begin to work. they do not want to caught with blood on their hands.

when they ask what can be done. we refer them to ctc and lcc who both have a number of good proposals / strategies to improve road safety for cyclists.

(i believe ctc / lcc cannnot email the politicians in this way because they get govn funding which would be cut if they got up their nose).

we dont have govn funding issues. that is why we are in a good place to get up the politicians noses - by being direct and aggressive. we have nothing to lose.

i would do it myself but i dont have the computer skills. but if anybody who does wants to help / thinks its a good idea post here.

speak soon and all the best.
