The scottish lass Katie Clark I think her name was,that spoke at the Labour Party demo has not signed yet.

However the list of MP's signing is increasing every day so a little bit of patience just in case she isnt a sponsered MP.

Government minsters cant sign EDM'S so that reduces the number of Labour MP'S that can sign.

With EDM's they build up over time by this time next week i would say we be well on the way to getting 125 signatures.

I contacted my local labour MP over a week ago with regards to signing the motion. He still hasnt signed or replied to my email.

Big Daz · Post by **Big Daz** » 23 Oct 2008, 19:23

Who is you MP? If he is a government minister then he cant sign as they are not allowed (rules of parliment)

Another conservative MP has signed

Dear Mr *****

EARLY DAY MOTION 2136

Thank you for your email asking that I sign EDM 2136

I have always been a strong supporter of the Royal Mail and I believe a just agreement between Royal Mail and the trade unions on the issue of pensions is important I have no problem signing the EDM you refer to.

Best wishes.
yours sincerely

recieved this letter through the post this morning although my MP's name hasnt yet appeared on the list of mp's who have signed.
