ALERT - LOBBY SCOTTISH PARLIAMENT (WHEREVER YOU ARE!)

There will a debate in the Scottish Parliament on Thursday,(18th March)
on Scotlands GM position.

The vote will be very close and is winnable.

To help achieve what would be a very important victory, we need to show
the huge amount of public concern [around the world] by lobbying those
most likely to rebel against the Executive.

The opposition in Parliament is now united so we need to e-mail the
following potential rebels from the ruling parties to vote on principal
and against GM.

We are purposefully not sending out a standard letter, so that each
letter either from the public or organisations is clearly seen as an
individual committment. (We all know the issues)

Please send arguments and opinions to:

Lib Dems

john.munro.msp@scottish.parliament.uk
donald.gorrie.msp@scottish.parliament.uk
margaret.smith.msp@scottish.parliament.uk
mike.pringle.msp@scottish.parliament.uk
mike.rumbles.msp@scottish.parliament.uk
jeremy.purvis.msp@scottish.parliament.uk
keith.raffan.msp@scottish.parliament.uk
iain.smith.msp@scottish.parliament.uk

Lab:

marlyn.glen.msp@scottish.parliament.uk
kate.maclean.msp@scottish.parliament.uk
cathy.peattie.msp@scottish.parliament.uk
margaret.jamieson.msp@scottish.parliament.uk
bill.butler.msp@scottish.parliament.uk

We only need 4 or 5 of these to change sides and vote for a GM free
Scotland (and also derail UK GM policy!)

PLEASE CIRCULATE AS WIDELY AS POSSIBLE TO AND AMONGST GROUPS AND
ORGANISATIONS.

Thank you for your support,

Munlochy GM Vigil
