Screenshot of a Facebook post from Michelle Magnus with the following text... "So I’ve been thinking … Members of the silent majority are slowly waking up. The impression I am getting from posts here is despite frequently emailing Ministers, MPs etc you don’t get a response. I worked in an MPs office for a few years. MPs do respond to letters. You might get a nothing response but the important thing is a file is opened and your letter kept with an “issue” title. This database (the Nats one anyway) is able to be seen by all other Nat MPs. Don’t worry any information coming into the electorate office is not subject to OIA. I am going to start writing to MPs at their electorate office addresses - at this stage one a week as there is so much crap going on. If a majority of us started doing this their electorate office will be very busy! More importantly they will be bombarded with what their voters think and forced to respond instead of ignoring us. So join me in some old fashioned letter writing to Ministers and MPs of all the coalition parties. If possible make an appointment to see your local MP during recess. That also creates a file and bring a list of things they’re getting wrong ( it’s long I know)! You do not need to specify why you want to see the MP. Some good for thought today."
