I note on the wires that our MP, Tim Yeo, is being challenged for the chairmanship of the Parliamentary Energy and Climate Change Committee by Philip Hollobone.
As far as I can see from googling, Mr Hollobone, who became an MP in 2005, is on the right of the Conservative party having been a prominent member of the Monday Club when at Oxford.
I do hope that Tim is successful and becomes the Chairman of this Committee once again. He is genuinely interested in environmental issues and I am concerned that a man of the ‘right’ will not really have the right attitude towards the causes necessary to save the planet.
