Example letters
The following are examples of letters and emails to MPs urging opposition to the Martlew bill.

Caution: I am collecting these from Usenet and from letter scopied to me; many of them are likely to be excellent, but please don't be tempted to do a straight cut-and-paste job. Letters work best if they are in your own style, they reflect your own interests and circumstances, they addrsss your MP's own interests (see below) and above all they don't resemble some boilerplate you copied off a website ;-)

MPs talk to each other: if you copy and paste, you may be found out and have your argument discounted.

You might want to check your member's entry in the Register of Members' Interests.
