Lobbying the DVLA

Following our great Archdruid's recent entry about Christian car suppliers, Mrs Hnaef has come to me in great distress on the subject of our current vehicular arrangements. Although seemingly unconcerned by the status of my (very serviceable) 1982 Mini Clubman (blue), she has raised concerns about her new BMW 4x4 model (in British Racing Green this year, as she has explained that she wants us to do our bit for the environment, and "going green" is very this decade).

The main concern seems to be that it may not be Calcedon-compliant. I understand that it conforms to Dolby (that talented young theologian-about-town performer of rondelays such as "Close but No Cigar", a trenchant and prophetic discussion of the salvific effects of tobacco-based products on the United States presidency), but searching BMW's "website", and that of the DVLA, yields no information about Calcedon compliance. I, personally, would support a national motor certification scheme on double predestination, but realise that Calcedon compliance should be achievable in shorter order.

I would therefore ask all readers to lobby the DVLA for a Calcedon-compliance certificate, with status to be displayed on all motor vehicle specification data by 2012, and required compliance for all new vehicles by 2015. I would be very happy to prepare the auditing materials required. I am considering standing at the next General Election on this platform, as an official representative of the BPP (Beaker People Party), subject to Archdruidical approval, and will be accepting suggestions for other planks in my forthcoming manifesto.
