That went walkabout in mid message.

What I'm suggesting is that people in the UK send a fax to their MPs, via fax yourMP, which is free, and you don't even need to now the name of the MP, because the site takes care of that.

And people not in the UK, I suggest that you write a note saying that you would sooner spend your holidays in a place where informal music is encouraged rather than penalised, and you will probably not be coming to England for any holidays until the law has been properly sorted out. (It doesn't matter that you have no current plans to come here anyway, that wouldn't in any way effect the truth of that statement.) And why not send it to Tony Blair? - he'll send it downstairs to the relevant minister.

And when you've done one of those two things, if you post to the Mudcat saying that you have, it might encourage other people to do the same.
