I've been contacted via the 4x4 Prejudice website by BBC television.  The Politics Show is staging a live debate and report on London traffic issues, and on the 4x4 campaign...  


"The programme will be broadcast on BBC1 on Sunday at 1pm. It goes out live from City Hall near Tower Bridge. We are hoping to have the boss of Transport for London in the studio at the top of the programme - he will hopefully be answering criticisms of the congestion charge - we are getting actor Tom Conti to do a report on his concerns of the scheme.

For the second part we would like to put a report together on your campaign against 4x4 prejudice. After the 3 minute report we will come back to a live discussion in the studio between yourselves and Alliance Against urban 4x4s.


I would need to film the report this week. It would involve around 3 hours of filming."


Now, unfortunately I can't make it, but I think we need to have some representation there if possible.   So... if you fancy being on Telly, can present the facts of our campaign and would like to go head-to-head with the Alliance...  please get in touch... I need to give the BBC guys an answer ASAP.

Neil?

You were good on Radio 2.

TechnoTurkey:
Sounds good and I will make sure that we are watching it.

We do need to be careful about the candidate that is selected to ensure that they are watertight - for example if the person who goes on owns a cayenne then its game over isn't it!

Would suggest a Diesel Discovery 7 seater owner who uses it as a daily drive but also needs it for its full capabilities.

Just an update.

I've been chatting with the Beeb, and the immediate issue is that they would like to talk to a person in London, using their 4x4 for every-day stuff.  They will need to give up a couple of hours of their time for filming... this is for the short report.

This person doesn't have to do the live debate, but will need to be clear on the arguments and able to express them on camera.  (not live)

Please feel free to post the content of this thread to other forums, etc.    It would be great to be able to show a strong and sane response.  

The TV people seem friendly, and are looking for a balanced viewpopint, so you won't get hijacked or demonised.

Please contact me :  messages@4x4prejudice.org
