[cma-l] Fwd: Digital Britain - Community Radio

[Steve Buckley]

Dear all

This is what I have sent today to Richard Caborn and our five other 
local MPs, including Nick Clegg, leader of the Lib Dems. I hope you 
have done similar or can do the same *now*. Today is the last day of 
parliament until 12 October, but hopefully quite a few MPs will still 
be in Westminster this week.

Steve

>Community Radio Order 2004, that are both part of the Digital
