How You Can Help (Version V)

YOU can help us.

Here's how:

1. Sign the latest anti-BBC petition.  [Note: UK Parliament will send you an e-mail with a link that you need to click on to confirm your signature to the petition.  If it doesn't appear in your Inbox, please check your Spam/Junk folder].

2. Tell your friends, family, contacts and work colleagues about the petition and give them the link so they can sign it too.

3. To help further promote the petition, a very easy but important step you can take is to open a free account over at buffer, the social media tool, and schedule some automated messages for your Twitter and Facebook accounts with the petition link.  If you're really keen to help, then for maximum effect you should schedule for 4 or 5 messages to be sent out each day and re-schedule these every couple of days.  We appreciate that's something of a commitment, so if you can only manage to schedule one message for each platform per day, that would still help greatly, and would also mean that you only need to re-schedule the automated messages on a weekly basis.  Each message needs to be worded differently (though the change in wording need only be very slight) and should include the petition link [https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/226446].  

4. Write to your local MP.  If you're not sure who that is, you can search for your MP here.  We also recommend you use the UK Parliament constituency search page to find your MP's exact contact details, once you know their name.  Letters (snail mail) are the most effective, but e-mail is fine if that's all you have time for. It's best if you compose the letter in your own words, but if it helps, feel free to refer the MP to our website and key links such as the summary of our case against the BBC here.  If you do e-mail, make sure you include your address within the constituency, as that ensures a reply.  Do send us a copy of what you write and let us know if you receive a reply!
