On Wednesday 26 January Hyndburnlite is giving us the chance to talk to our MP Greg Pope "live" at the House of Commons! Apparently we can ask him questions on any topic - ooer.

They have set up a special forum which they are calling an "on line surgery", with Mr. Pope logging in from his office in the House of Commons. That is of course provided Mr. Pope is actually able to log in. Wouldn't it be interesting if he couldn't and was told his cookies were to blame?

They claim that this is the first time Hyndburn Life’s users will have been able to speak directly to their elected Member of Parliament. I find that statement rather odd considering he holds regular surgeries here in the borough.

It starts at 6pm next Wednesday and will last for one hour - judging by the number of people posting on Hyndburnlite it will do well to last more than five minutes.
