In October 2010, four Richmond and Kingston WDM members met with Ed Davey MP (Liberal Democrat, Kingston and Surbiton).
We raised the issues of Trade and Food Speculation. We pointed out that WDMs believe that the present volatility is much worse than usual because of the activities of speculators, and gave him WDM’s report on this which he agreed to read. You can find the report at: http://www.wdm.org.uk/food-speculation
We hope to arrange more meetings with local MP’s in 2011. These meetings usually take place in the evenings and are a good way for groups of members to meet their MP and raise issues on behalf of WDM. Other MPs covering the Kingston and Richmond WDM area are Zac Goldsmith MP (Conservative, Richmond Park & North Kingston) and Vince Cable MP (Liberal Democrat, Twickenham).
