Just finished emailing seven mates who all live in different parts of the country asking them to email their own MP's!

Just done similar with friends in other constituencies ... also emailing my MP David Miliband as he has been very supportive so far

My MP, Norman Baker, actually phoned me up this evening!

[He needed to send his apologies to a meeting that I was attending]

I'm sorry, folks - I didn't even waste my breath bothering to ask him to sign.

Alas he's my MP (for now) too. I can't say he represents me, he just happens to be an MP in my area :(

I'm not going to waste my breathe.

Roll on the elections!

Quite possibly. Can't remember. It was during the last election when I was working in Stockport.

To whoever asked if Ivor C is allowed to sign, the answer is no. Members of the government by convention do not sign EDMs.

Jeremy Corbyn emailed. He's a gooner so he should be in a good mood today. Also congratulated him on his fine speech at the anti-war demo on Saturday.

Since I first checked this 3 hous ago 3 MP's have since signed - Paul Flynn (LAB Newport West), Greg Pope (LAB, Hyndburn) and Laura Moffat (LAB, Crawley) to join the 6 already signed. Good going guys.

Unfortunately my MP sits in the Indonesian parliament and is a corrupt git who controls the illegal logging racket in one of our finest national parks, so I won't be contacting him:p

mind you it seems that upwards of 50 MP's sign most EDM's, with several getting more than 100.

We are number 831 in the league table of active EDM's, 5 places behind this:

That this House congratulates Colchester United Football Club on reaching the 5th round of the FA Cup; notes that the 4th round replay 3-1 victory over Coventry City adds to the list of higher division clubs defeated by Colchester over the years; pay tribute to the team, manager Phil Parkinson, chairman Mr Peter Heard and all associated with Colchester United; and wishes the club further success.

:eek:

and 19 MP's signed this one...

That this House warmly congratulates Accrington Stanley FC on their achievement on being in the draw for the Fourth Round of the FA Cup; notes that they will have had to take on three Football League clubs to get this far; wishes them well in their replay against Colchester; and looks forward to their eventual return to the Football League, of which Accrington were founder members.

David Miliband is not allowed to sign either, as he is a Government Minister. It seems only backbenchers and opposition party members can sign.

O/T David Miliband is a bit of a hero to my partner Daisy. Aside from his family's left wing history, he is a minister at the Department for Education and Skills who has allowed Daisy's school to become the first ever Montessori school in the UK to enter the state sector.
