From the More Train , Less Strain website :

MINISTER REFUSES TO MEET MTLS (More Train Less Strain).

Tom Harris has refused to meet with us, though Don Foster MP (Member of Parliament) is willing to make a second approach to him to request a meeting on ouir behalf if we can provide him with a dossier showing that FGW (First Great Western) still isn't working.

We want to make sure that our dossier is not a dodgy one, unlike the one used by the government to start the IRAQ war. To help us compile the dossier we need YOU to post your bad experiences on the forum now (http://forum.moretrainlessstrain.co.uk/)

Now it would appear that Alison Forster is too busy to meet MTLS (More Train Less Strain) (link below.)
