Blogging Tory: Wind Bag or Making a Difference?

Richard Warman, serial litigant and HRC hit-man, has sued a number of bloggers. There are concerns and outrage and high dudgeon galore being expressed on the blogs. What a waste of time.

In my opinion, unless your concerns transfer to direct action … you are no more than a windbag. If you don't have concerns abou this issue, then by all means ignore this post.

First and foremost, call or email Robert Nicholson, the Minister in Charge of CHRC excesses, or your MP. Email has the advantage of being able to link your MP to the appropriate sources of information. But, a personal call, which they will return after you leave your request, will carry a lot of weight. Furthermore, encourage your readers to call or write, supplying them with the proper phone and email addresses. Collectively, the BT has huge readership.

Next, call the CPC and tell them that you will not contribute donations unless action is taken. I’m sure all of you who have memberships have had your share of the dreaded CPC fund raisers from hell. They are persistent, they are regular, and they’ve raised a pile of cash for the party. Now, I’d say it’s time to cut off the tap where we can, simply because the CPC has been incredibly quiet on this issue. If you give, give to those who will need support through the legal process.

I've got a call into my MP. If I don't get action from him, I will be resigning from my position with the riding association and will not spend one more dime on the CPC. In the least, I expect him to start agitating. That's what our MPs are for.

Your prime target ... click. (see contact us )

Your secondary target ... click.

And ... Do not forget to email your letters of support to Keith Martin, the only MP who is getting into this fight by asking for the repeal of section 13.1

Update: Clarification

There are two issues here. One is a legal matter between Warman and the Bloggers. The CHRC abuses are the other issue. Warman personally is involved in both. The CPC can do something about the CHRC abuses. Your donations can help in the Warman vs. bloggers case.
