Please follow the ‘write to your MP’ below, it really is a very easy tool the law society have set up.
If you have time though please personalise your response.
TLS have put together a good campaign here. Let’s hope it catches a wave.
If you live in a Labour constituency remind your MP this is supposedly the 4th pillar of the welfare state and that 0% rate-rises since 1994 is a disgrace
their party shares the blame for.
