I visited the site having been incited to do so by Steve Ridgway and sent an email to my (Conservative) MP and got a very prompt response from the House of Commons which told me in so many words to go away.

It looked like a pretty standard letter maybe with a few options inserted (depending what I was complaining about) which talked about the biggest structural defecit in history being inherited from the last Labour government and something had to be done about it and this was one way. It also said the departure tax was being extended to cover "business jets".
