Anthony and David Miliband
Originally uploaded by AnthonyMck.
As part of the Kinder Trespass celebrations that took place on Saturday 21st April, just before the local elections, we were able to ‘borrow’ David Miliband from his part in the celebration events in New Mills to attend to a number of events in both Buxton and Glossop.
The Glossop event took the form of a Q&A session on the theme of what local government can do to impact climate change, and started off with a short speech from Tom Levitt MP, followed by David Miliband, with questions from the mixed audience of local Labour Party people, a green party representative and a few others.
The topics covered ranged from renewable energy, planning law, transport, to most things in between and Miliband, gave good answers that seemed to satisfy the audience present that he both knew his brief, but was also concerned about what can be done to tackle the range of problems in his area of responsibility.
