Motoring

Proceeding contribution from Nigel Evans (Conservative) in the House of Commons on Tuesday, 9 March 2010. It occurred during Adjournment debate on Motoring.
In the time I have, I cannot be comprehensive on all matters, but I take on board the hon. Gentleman's point. There is no bigger fan of Gwyneth Dunwoody in this Parliament than I. She was a doughty fighter and an amazing politician. She loved Parliament and fought for what she believed with relentless energy. Parliament is poorer for the fact that she is no longer with us. An overhaul is needed of the way motoring is approached in the UK. That can be done only by looking at the full picture, not at individual aspects. When all of the aspects are added up, they do not represent a level playing field for motorists, who are targeted and punished disproportionately. Motorists are not the scourge of society and the Government should not treat them as if they are.
