I like the way the video has been removed by the youtube user :)

I made a suggestion that it may be worth turning up 'en masse' to one of his surgeries :-

Could invite the press along as well :)

What all in ESOC polo shirts :)

Pistonheads covered the article today and 99% gave the man a thorough ear bashing (online of course) I imagine the remaining 1% were of the 'none of the above' variety.

I reckon we should arrange another meet and protest around parlament square... Be sure to bring nates... Horn:luxhello:

Perfect for an afternoon run round westferry. :D Only 5 mins from the Yard for me.

So even though its all done for "charity" he wants to stop it. So is this mp going to write to all the charities that the tunnel runs have been done for that he "will take full responsibility" for the loss of donations to the charities these events bring. Sooner or later the modified car owners will get punished for doing good.

I just put my point on his fb page so i said if he bans it will he cover the donations to the charities as well as if VOSA mot testers grant us our tickets then thetes nothing wrong with our cars. If members break the road rules thats a job for the police

Typical Labour, target the easy stuff and turn a blind eye to real crime!

I love the page "BEFORE they were famous - the dramatic makeover of stars. Basically just showing pictures of famous stars earlier in their career i.e they were ALREADY famous.

How to become a journalist. Step 1. Fail your exams. Step 2 apply for a job at the Standard.

Lots of comments on his FB page, no replies from him I could see.

and as always a very very few idoits diving silly spoils it for the rest off us ,i bet it wasnt even a tunnel run but for this mp its a good place to start ,and in an age of charitys suffering with the recession at least the car cumminity still putting there hands in there pocket when the goverment motto is cut cut cut ,its ok coming off my soap box know .:mad:

i read that - and surprisingly it came out only a week or two after the ESC Tunnell Run

Looks like he has disabled replies on his FB page

Black or red!

Can we get some stickers made up like this?! (Or maybe a BMW forum already has some?)

There is always a different perspective to all arguments.

My feeling is that Tunnel Runs have had their day it seems like everyone and their cat is doing a run "for charity" nowadays and I can see some of the point he is trying to make.

To have one run past your doorstep every Saturday night would get on anyones nerves. You might think that YOUR run is only once per year but the reality is different.

I can remember someone coming on here and complaining once about the Posers Cruise. He said that he had difficulty getting his pregnant wife to hospital because we blocking the road. Puts it into perspective.

We all have to give and take in this life and sometime this will include stepping back and looking at the big picture. It's unavoidable that SOMEONE will get inconvenienced by a tunnel run AND it's a bit rich that this particular MP seems to be trying to get some political mileage out of it. Saying that who would you rather be complaining? An MP or the Police :D

To those of you who don't know me, I have a little experience of running Tunnel Runs from the past :)
