Your petition to the Prime Minister
After much effort (I won't bore you with the details)the Downing Street e-petition site has finally accepted this petition -see below. I hope you feel you can sign it. Please also circulate as widely as possible. If you are involved with a newsletter,magazine or journal please try and get it mentioned in there and put in the link to the website.I will be sending a short piece to Travellers' Times and to Legal Action magazine. Please do likewise if you know of any suitable journals.Thanks in anticipation of your support which I am sure will be greatly appreciated by our clients who are facing eviction action without any proper method of them presenting their case before the court.
