Dear Sir, 20th May 2009
The past few days have been bad for politics. That is why there should be a General Election, to be held as soon as possible after the 4th June European elections.
We want as many people as possible - whether they support Labour, or the LibDems, or no party - to join in. Though the power of our collective pressure, we can force Gordon Brown to act.
No - there is no constitutional requirement for a General Election. Yes - this Labour Government could cling on for another year, with or without a new leader.
But we don't think the country wants to wait another year to pass judgment on their politicians, and on this Parliament. We don't think the country wants to wait another year before we start dealing seriously with the debt crisis and this economic crisis.
The political system in Britain today, from the Prime Minister downwards, is quite simply paralysed. And it is now abundantly clear that the country does not want to wait another year to give everyone in Westminster a simple message:
We want change - now we must get on with it.

Yours faithfully,
