Hello everyone,
This list:
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...s-vote-tories-iain-duncan-smith-a6918556.html
is in the Independent, and it is a list of all MPs who voted for the ESA cuts, twice returned from the Lords, and forced through last week.
Several of the MPs, including Jacob Rees Mogg, are members the APPG for ME.
I don't believe that they should be, and I think the MEA and Action for ME should ask them to stand down.
If you agree, email the charities and tell them so.
Several other charities have taken forceful action over this, I think ME charities should too.
There is a petition:
https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/124016
which has already triggered a debate of the ESA cuts in Parliament. More signatures add weight to the opposition, so please sign if you want to stop the cuts.
The issue will be debated again, so we do have a chance to make a difference. Write to your MP, and if they voted yes to the cuts, ask them to justify their vote. Just a sentence from you is all you need to write.
