Here is some text from my letter to my MP which you can use, if you like, as a model for your letter:
I regret that I must say that unless
you are seen to speak in parliament and to vote against this war neither I nor many of your constituents will be willing to support you in the next general election. This is a general problem for the Labour Party: many of those who voted for Labour in the two previous general elections will either vote Lib Dem or simply not vote at all, if this murderous attack on Iraq goes forward.
I am aware that the decision to oppose your party leadership will not be an easy one for you to take, but I hope that I may comfort you with the thought that a willingness to stand on a matter of principle against the will of the Cabinet was central to the successful political careers of Harold Wilson, or indeed much earlier Winston Churchill. Know also, that if you take the right decision, the voters of XXXXXX will keep you in Westminister.
I am grateful for the service you have given to XXXXX and hope that you will find a way towards representing the will of the vast majority of your constituents in the coming matter. We count on you to vote your disagreement with the government's conduct of its foreign policy on the Iraq question. The Prime Minister has lost the confidence of the country, and it is for you to stop him committing Britain to this act of pre-meditated mass murder, even if he secures the sanction of the United Nations
