Signed and emailed!

@Binterested

Signed. Still not had my email from the Baroness. Will check the spam filter. Anyone know if the email came from a different address to her address ?
I’ve not had an email back yet either, sent mine over a week ago.

My local Tory county councillor has just got back to me. His reaction could best be described as Shock (I predicted as much) and he's in the process of raising it further.

sorry @Binterested

The first one came from the Baroness. This was the one with the information

highame · 31/07/2020 22:42

@Binterested this is who it came from

WILLMOTT, Karen

Signed petition and emailed the Baroness.

endofthelinefinally · 31/07/2020 15:25

Bumping because the petition needs some more signatures.

I have written to my MP, leader of the council, and cabinet member for children and schools, highlighting my concerns and asking for action. I wanted to make sure I got my message right so used some of the materials produced by Safe Schools Alliance - very comprehensive and clear. Thank you Tanya and Tracy!

SabrinasCat · 25/07/2020 10:53

Thank you all very much! Yes, I was missing the crucial ‘e’! Message sent.

TedsFederationRep · 25/07/2020 10:22

Try Nicholsone@parliamentuk.

The 'e' is important. Like the 'e' in 'women' rather than some random letter like 'x'. Grin

Am I missing something? I can’t get through on email. I keep getting a bounce back message. I’m trying: [email protected]

Mailed my MP, name-dropping the Baroness and attaching all the materials. Asked for an appointment. Will report back.

TedsFederationRep · 24/07/2020 14:02

The Baroness retweeted this from Glinner the other day.

Did anyone else know that the BBC had quietly stepped away from Mermaids? I certainly didn't (but then, if I was looking for unbiased reporting, the BBC is possibly the second-last place I would look, after RT).

spongedog · 24/07/2020 01:55

Received it here as well.

HandsOffMyRights · 23/07/2020 19:06

I've got the email and I will be reporting for duty.
I think the letter was circulated on Twitter.
It's a little hard as I work in education, but will work around it.

My MP alreàdy knows me. She seemed fairly on board when we met, but doesn't respond to my emails now....her male aide was a bit dodgy though, wouldn't look out of place in a a Challenor line up, and wondering if he's intercepting my emails.

TedsFederationRep · 23/07/2020 18:52

I've got it too. I've already managed to establish a good rapport with my local Tory councillor (male, openly GC) and he'd happily be onto this if he's not already. My MP knows my views but heaven forfend that she should feel left out...

teawamutu · 23/07/2020 18:44

Or ask for an appointment - yes, can do.

Wolfgirrl · 23/07/2020 18:43

@teawamutu maybe you could email and then phone to say it needs urgent attention?

teawamutu · 23/07/2020 18:42

I have it too.

My one query is that my mp is pretty good at responding to email, so I'd be minded just to write and forward the attachments. What do you think?

SheWhoMustNotBeHeard · 23/07/2020 18:32

Yes. Got it.

KarenKarendson · 23/07/2020 18:26

Given how closely the Misogynist Monitors are likely to be watching these threads (waves) maybe it’s better not to go into too much detail here.

Agree.

Smellbellina · 23/07/2020 18:24

I’ve emailed although I wasn’t really sure what to put!
