Dear John,

From Wales to Watford, we have seen our supporter letters appear in newspapers across the country.

Would you consider joining many Best for Britain supporters who have already written to their local newspapers about the danger posed by Elections Bill?

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 thoughts you have on the issue. 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. MPs will vote on the Elections Bill the moment Parliament returns from its summer break. Act now to ensure your letter is published in time. 

While contacting your MP online with Hey-MP.uk is brilliant, many MPs still rely on their local paper to get an idea of their constituents’ views, and the comments section in particular. It's also your chance to make a difference in your community, and see your name in print.

Before your MP returns to Parliament in September, let’s make sure the whole country is talking about the Elections Bill.

Best wishes,

Cary Mitchell,
Director of Operations, Best for Britain

To the editor,

The newly published Elections Bill will allow ministers to define and curtail ‘campaigning’, could make coordinating opposition an offence, and permits political meddling in the Electoral Commission.

A free election is one where unaffiliated organisations, charities and even the person on the street can be part of the debate. And where independent groups like Best for Britain, can provide voters with information on parties and their policies.

By putting restrictions on campaigning and cross-party co-operation, this bill stifles healthy opposition. It is an attack on the foundations of our democracy.

Yours sincerely,

[Your name]
