It’s starting to work! We pushed six government MPs to rebel and vote for a rethink. <\/strong>MPs from all parties stood up to talk about problems with the sell-off. Even David Cameron has started making vague hints that he might be willing to back down<\/strong>. [2]<\/p>\n From the postcode you put in when you signed the petition, it looks like you live in Bristol West constituency. That means your MP voted against a rethink of the sell-off plans<\/strong>. So now’s the time to get back in touch. Let’s tell them we noticed how they voted, and will be keeping up the pressure until they start standing up for our woodlands<\/strong>. [3]<\/p>\n Please email your MP now to tell them to start fighting to save our forests:<\/strong><\/p>\n http:\/\/www.38degrees.org.uk\/email-your-mp-forests-voted-no<\/a><\/p>\n Every single MP heard from hundreds of us this week<\/strong>. The next time MPs vote on selling off our woodland, it could be a make-or-break vote to pave the way for privatisation. We need to keep the spotlight on every MP. <\/strong>They need to keep hearing from us by email, on the phone, and face-to-face. Together we can make them realise that if they vote to sell our forests, local voters won’t forgive them.<\/strong><\/p>\n We’re showing politicians that they can’t get away with pushing Click here to email your MP and ask them why they didn’t vote to save our forests:<\/strong><\/p>\n http:\/\/www.38degrees.org.uk\/email-your-mp-forests-voted-no<\/a><\/p>\n Thanks for being involved,<\/p>\n David, Hannah, Johnny and the 38 Degrees team<\/p>\n PS If your MP has replied to you, don’t forget to share what they said here: http:\/\/blog.38degrees.org.uk\/2011\/01\/24\/save-our-forests-what-did-your-mp-say\/<\/a><\/p>\n NOTES<\/p>\n [1] See for example Hugh Bayley (York Central) (Lab): “Literally [2] http:\/\/www.guardian.co.uk\/environment\/2011\/feb\/02\/forest-sell-off-cameron-listens<\/a><\/p>\n [3] If that doesn’t sound right to you click here to search all MPs http:\/\/www.38degrees.org.uk\/page\/content\/forest_vote_table\/ <\/a>, <\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\n <\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n <\/span> <\/strong><\/strong><\/strong> The bigger we are the more we can do.

\nNearly 100,000 of us emailed and phoned our MPs. We ran full-page
\nnewspaper adverts publicising the number of names on the petition. Every single MP felt the heat. <\/strong>[1]<\/p>\n
\nBut a lot of them will be hoping the fuss will now die down. We need to
\nget back in touch quickly, to prove we are here for the long haul. MPs
\nneed to feel we’ll keep watching them until our woods are protected for future generations.<\/strong><\/p>\n
\nthrough policies that nobody voted for and hardly anyone supports. We’re
\nstanding up for the principle that some things are so precious that no government should be allowed to sell them off.<\/strong> If we keep going, we can save our forests – and also stand up for our right to be heard.<\/p>\n
\nhundreds of my constituents have written to me saying that something
\nmust be done to stop the sale”<\/p>\n
\nthen write to your MP. There are over 1 million postcodes in the UK and
\nin a few cases our database can’t work out which constituency you are
