Dear <name> MP,
Thousands of people will die this winter in homes they can’t afford to keep warm. It’s a national scandal.
I’m joining tens of thousands of people calling for home energy efficiency to be made an energy efficiency infrastructure priority. As my MP I ask you to contact your party leader and urge him to make a pledge in your party manifesto to insulate 2 million low income homes to EPC band C by 2020 and all 6 million low income homes to band C by 2025.
This is the only permanent solution to high energy bills and the deaths caused by cold homes. To further show your support email MPSupporters@energybillrevolution.org or tweet @EnergyBillRev.
Please reply to this letter and let me know if you will join me in supporting this important campaign.
Yours sincerely,
Don’t forget to include your address so they know that you are their constituent
