I was musing over possibilities - you know, what the heck could skippy have asked of Greg Pope?

I came up with a hypothetical situation.

Supposing a Hyndburn resident had applied for planning permission for something which was totally impractical - a helipad on top of their terraced house for instance - and HBC had rejected the application.

Off the resident/constituent toddles to Greg to ask him, as their MP, to write to HBC and ask them to reconsider. Greg tries to tell resident that it's a daft idea and not to be such a prat (well he wouldn't use the word prat, he's far too polite for that) but resident/constituent insists that Greg should write letter to HBC.

Greg sighs and says "OK I'll write a letter but it won't do any good because it's still a bleepity-bleep-bleep stupid idea."

Resident/constituent complains that Greg has't taken them seriously.

Am I close?
