Here is a template of how you can structure your letter, featuring some examples sentences. Please choose which aspects you wish to keep or delete.


Ideally, it is best if you can write your own letter to your MP. A unique letter will have the most impact. However, you could mention some of the following aspects:

 

  • 'I am worried about the increased use of state repression against individuals who are acting in protest of a genocide that has been going on since October 7th 2023.'

 

  • 'I am concerned about the misuse of anti-terror laws against activists, something that has been recognised by the United Nations.'

 

  • 'I am concerned that alleged property damage is considered terrorism, whilst our nation providing weapons to kill a largely civilian population is considered acceptable.'

 

  • 'I am afraid that protest has been so surveilled and criminalised in this country, that people are left with few options to show that they disagree with our government's complicity in the actions of Israel.'

 

  • 'I believe it is hypocritical that we teach children about the evils of the Holocaust - and that we should have acted to stop it if we had been alive then - but simultaneously apply the harshest punishments to those who protest a modern-day genocide.'

 

  • 'I think that if MPs had stood up for the human rights of Palestinians, every day citizens would not have to endanger their own freedoms in order to stop the ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people.'

 

  • 'I am disgusted by the UK's complicity in the arms trade that props up the military of countries like Israel, and do not see how we can expect normal people to sit by whilst weapons made on UK soil are used to kill thousands of people in Palestine in the most brutal manner.'

 

  • 'As my MP, I would like to see you speak on behalf of political prisoners who have never wanted to endanger human life, and in fact care deeply about protecting it.'

 

  • 'As my MP, I ask that you will question the Crown Prosecution Service's misuse of anti-terror laws and the use of high-security prisons to incarcerate people who have not hurt anybody - especially when they have not yet stood trial.'
