52. Amazing. And half of those are industry or media. Yes, I want a consultation, but it takes more than one party to make that happen.

With the greatest respect, Simon, the world exists above the
Watford Gap. Not everyone can easily travel to London for a 6:30pm meeting on a weekday with such short notice. I know I cant. That doesnt mean that we are all talk and no action. I have spent hours writing to my MPs, MEPs, Liberty etc.
In the spirit of being constructive, as has been mentioned before, a meeting on IRC or similar would be a good idea. Maybe on a network such as undernet or efnet. That way people from all over the country could more easily attend.
Failing that a meeting somewhere central such as Manchester, Leeds or Sheffield or on a weekend may have been wiser if you genuinely wanted a true consultation.
