What to say in your letter or email
It's a good idea to start by getting straight to the point, by saying: "As one of your constituents I am asking if you will support Republic, the Campaign for an Elected Head of State."
You may also want to include some or all of the following points.
Remember! Keep your letter brief, polite and to the point.
- Mention that you are a member or supporter of Republic.
- The monarchy is both undemocratic and unfair. In a modern democracy we should all have the right, as citizens equal in law, to collectively choose who we want to represent us as the British Head of State.
- Despite the many myths supporting a system of monarchy - such as increased tourism and political stability - it is clear that such a system is long outdated and indefensible. Inherited power and privilege can no longer be seen as acceptable.
- Ask if your MP agrees with your view that we should replace the monarchy with an elected Head of State. If your MP does agree, perhaps they would also consider giving their official support to Republic's campaign.
- Let them know more details of Republic and our aims can be found at www.republic.org.uk.
