We (and other groups) are asking that everyone writes to their MP, of whatever political party NOW, asking them to insist the the government should #presspause, for those three reasons. @SexMattersOrg has written a guide for an e-mail: sex-matters.org/take-action/wr… 2/
We hope this will lead to withdrawal of the consultation in its current form. If it's not withdrawn, we must plan responses to the consultation. We will post information here in the coming week. Meanwhile, do have a look at these links:
