"Let the People Decide" - Mass lobby of Parliament Wednesday 27 February
Dear Supporter,
The I Want a Referendum campaign can confirm that a mass lobby of Parliament in favour of a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty will be taking place on Wednesday 27 February from 11am until 6pm.
Within around a week of the lobby, MPs will be voting in Parliament on whether or not there should be a national referendum on the Treaty - don't miss your chance to persuade them to vote 'yes'.
Anyone can lobby their MP - you do not have to be an expert. You just need to be willing to ask your MP a few questions, and to tell them why you think there should be a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty.
If you would like to take part in the lobby, please let us know by emailing
lobby@iwantareferendum.com - telling us your postcode and where you will be coming from.
Details of how the lobby will be organised, and what to do on the day will be sent to you in due course. We will also be sending out a brief guide to lobbying your MP, including some suggested questions. Posters and banners will be provided on the day.
Supporters are also invited to gather in the William Sangster Room, Central Hall Westminster, Storey's Gate, London SW1H 9NH, any time throughout the day from 11am until 7pm, where some of the campaign's leading MPs and supporters will be making speeches. Central Hall is just a few minutes walk from Parliament (click here for a map and directions), and has a café where you can buy refreshments.
Can you help organise transport to London?
If you plan to come to the lobby and are thinking of organising transport for additional people, please email
lorraine@iwantareferendum.com to let us know and we can try to let other people in your area know. It's a fantastic help in getting as many people to the lobby as possible.
Please encourage your friends and family to join us in what will be a fun day campaigning on this very important issue for Britain. We need thousands of people to come to Westminster and make this a success. Remember to tell them they can visit
I want a referendum for more information about the campaign.
Many thanks for your support. We cannot win without it.
