I've already had 2 replies from my MP today, although she too is going the mail route.

The bill is pretty much bad for anyone in the digital world. Theres implications for photography about copyright, music, net, etc. Its crazy. I'm not entirely sure what good it does if any.

Excellent

I had an acknowledgement from someone in my MPs office saying he'll respond by post.

There is so much wrong with this bill it's beyond belief! I shall mail my mp again with this now.
