Dear John,



Business is being battered.



Small business owners are suffering from post-Brexit red tape.



We want the government to take action. British businesses need a boost to recover from COVID, not extra paperwork and red tape. Would you consider writing to your local newspaper in support of our campaign to simplify trade? 



Millions of people read local newspapers, and the letters section is often the most read after the front page. 



It’s quick and easy. We’ve provided a template message at the bottom of this email. 



Simply copy and paste our template into a new email.Feel free to add any personal experience you’ve had with these new trading rules. Then send it on to your local newspaper. 



The email address you need should be on their website. 



Let us know when you’ve sent your letter by clicking the link below.

While contacting your MP online with Hey-MP is brilliant, many MPs still rely on their local paper to get an idea of their constituents’ views. Many older people still rely on local print media to get their information. It's your chance to make a difference in your community, and see your name in print!



Giving a specific example of how you've been impacted by new red tape will make your letter all the more impactful.



Best wishes,



Cary Mitchell,

Director of Operations, Best for Britain



To the editor,



The government may claim Brexit is ‘done’, but for many small business owners, it’s just getting started.



The trading relationship between the EU and UK is not fit for purpose. Traders are being subjected to burdensome processes – customs declaration, rules of origin certificates, VAT processes. Many businesses have ceased or restricted trade as a result, stifling our recovery from COVID and narrowing choice for consumers. Big name brands have stopped shipping to the UK.



While the government claims these “teething problems” are being ironed out, hauliers estimate trade with Europe has fallen massively since the beginning of the year.



And for fisherman who face a ban on exporting their shellfish to Europe, these “teething problems” are permanent and insurmountable.



If we are to build back Britain better than ever, we British businesses need a boost, not more red tape. That’s why I’m supporting the Best for Britain campaign to simplify trade.



Yours sincerely,
