Why not ask your MP to sign this. Write to them, reminding them what Indymedia is and what happened to it and urge them to sign EDM 1750.
It's best if you include all the details, eg by pasting from the original text above.
It's easy to do this by fax - just go to www.faxyourmp.com
That's www.faxyourmp.com
Only takes a minute, why not fire off a fax now :-).
