Still time to contact your MP encouraging him to attend or at least read the brief

I’ve done that but unfortunately, with such short notice, it was too late for my MP to attend the debate. However he’s promised to read the report and support the initiative.

I was rather late too - getting the document to the MPs is a good start.

Problem is we only got less than 2 days notice of this and most MP’s take a while to respond anyway.
