Mps - email your MP about PIP before the elections

Well done on your success MW123, maybe I am just a poor advocate, or do ministers have a separate contact address for contacting them as a minister?

I think this is an excellent point @SoapySoutar. 200 emails from one person is much less effective then 1 email each from 200 people.

Is there a limit on how many times someone can respond? If anything, @SoapySoutar’s message supports your point, it suggests that the more people who email, the better. If only a couple of people email, even if they do so a hundred times each, that’s far less effective than 100 different people each sending an email.

It sounds as though you have a wonderful MP @MW123. The workshops sound excellent, were they well attended?

I received a generic response from mine, but that hasn’t put me off sharing my thoughts. I see it as at least creating a record of opposition and concern.

Thank you again @Catherine21 for the Thread and for sharing the nature of the important, various issues you raised, each important in their own right, whether relating directly to PIP, or not.

I agree with @MW123 and would simply add I received a handful of replies. Had my constituency MP not responded they'd have most certainly been sent a follow up letter. And so on and so forth. So also would anybody else who may hold responsibility for what I was raising and chose to ignore.

I don't know where the '200 emails sent to one person' has come from but I'll personally choose to ignore more fanciful notions and stick to the suggestion Catherine makes in her original post, otherwise we risk the Thread being closed. It is too important for that to happen or to disect posters writing style or genuine, good intentions.

You can use the 'ignore' function mentioned in the community guidelines so you don't see their posts/comments.

Rather than it being targeted, could it be that this is a relatively small forum with core groups of active members who tend to respond to most posts? As you post and reply quite frequently across the forum, it's natural that you'll get more responses in general, including from people who may not always agree with you. It might feel repetitive, but that doesn't mean it's intentional or personal.

That's kind of what I've been trying to say all along, I think perhaps I don't always word things in the best way as I don't seem to get my message across a lot of the time. Thank you for your understanding 🫠.
