Dear Members of Parliament - some thoughts for you: [1] 
2/ You might not now how to vote on Brexit issues. Do you do what your constituency party association tells you? What your conscience tells you? What Think-tanks tell you? What party whips tell you?
3/ Thankfully, we have some information which should make things simpler for you. Firstly, you are obliged to follow something called the 'The Code of Conduct for Members of Parliament'
4/ The Code of Conduct for MPs specifically states: "Members have a general duty to act in the interests of the nation as a whole" publications.parliament.uk/pa/cm201012/cm…
5/ Since the public have voted to leave the EU, MPs now have the duty and obligation to pursue a form of Brexit which will be best for the UK. And that is simply - membership of EFTA (the European Free Trade Association) and the European Economic Area (EEA)
6/ Why do we say that an EFTA type brexit would be best? Simple - the majority of Trade experts, EU experts and government reports have been saying it for over 2 years.
7/ Check out this thread about the economics of brexit, and why EFTA/EEA is the best form of Brexit the UK
8/ Read this report on how we could use EFTA/EEA as a solution to many of the problems relating to the Irish border: ln.sync.com/dl/ba0e3e430/f…
9/ EFTA/EEA is therefore in the best interests of your constituents and the UK, and regardless of your personal views, what the Whips say, what your Party Leader says - your duty is to do everything in your power to bring it about. /End
