Last night's email postbag includes a message from correspondents some miles outside this constituency - a group of driving instructors in Wiltshire. They are campaigning for the re-opening of the driving test centre in Trowbridge, which - like ours here in Wisbech - has been closed by the Driving Standards Agency.
The Wiltshire drivers have received the support of their Liberal Democrat parliamentary candidate Duncan Hames, as well as the Conservative candidate.
Both Liberal Democrat transport spokesman Norman Baker MP and his Conservative counterpart Theresa Villiers MP have given a commitment to a full review of the Driving Standards Agency's test centre closure programme across the country.
The instructors particularly asked me to publicise these commitments, which I'm delighted to do, and which I fully support. They are apparently still waiting for a response from Labour's transport spokesman.
